When Samuel Was Young

Description of Illustration: A full color, restored vintage print of Hannah the mother of Samuel presenting the prophet in the temple to Eli. Above the texts are:

"After the boy is weaned, I will take him and present him before the LORD, and he will live there always." 1 Samuel 1:22 (NIV)
And then the Cross Reference from Luke about the life of Christ:
"When the time came for purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord." Luke 2:22 (NIV)


Above is a vignette of the same illustration with the following two additional scriptures:
"And the boy Samuel continued to grow in stature and in favor with the LORD and with people." 1 Samuel 2:26 (NIV)
And then the Cross Reference from Jesus' childhood is:
"And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man." Luke 2:52 (NIV)
