Now the Lord came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel!
Samuel!" And Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears." --1
Samuel 3:10

Lord, teach me to listen. The times are noisy and my ears are weary with
the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them. Give me the
spirit of the boy Samuel when he said to Thee, "Speak, for thy servant
heareth." Let me hear Thee speaking in my heart. Let me get used to the
sound of Thy voice, that its tones may be familiar when the sounds of
earth die away and the only sound will be the music of Thy speaking
voice. Amen. The Pursuit of God, pp. 82-83

"Speak, for Thy servant heareth. Amen."
