Our response, our prayer
that we would be as open as Samuel
ready for God’s calling
speaking his words back to God
faithful to our statements
“Speak. Your servant is listening,”
open to your calling
wanting to serve you
in the world, in the temple
Eager to be used
to be clay in the potter’s hand
a blessed place for the Spirit
dwelling in our heart
one in the body
a safe place for God
open, and ready
to be filled, poured out for all
