1 Samuel 2:26

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

1 Samuel 2:26. And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.

How vividly the Holy Spirit brings out the contrast between Samuel and these two wicked young men! They grew on in sin, but the child Samuel grew on in favor both with God and with men. The Lord loves to watch his lilies growing among the sharp thorns, and to see how brightly his stars are shining in the blackest night.
