Trepidation or Invitation?

Jan 17, 2021    Rev. Joel S. Eden    I Samuel 3:1-18

When the word of Yahweh comes to us, how do we respond? Do we respond with trepidation, with fear and trembling? Do we ignore it completely? Do we receive it as an invitation to repentance and restoration? Without Jesus, we rightly respond with trepidation, but once God has revealed himself to us, we can hear his word as it is meant to be, a welcome invitation filled with fatherly love.
