Eli the priest was a sincere and devout man who had been blessed by God with sons.
Unfortunately, Eli's sons were wicked men who, as priests, would steal and take advantage of the people bringing their offerings to God. God had spoken to Eli about his sons, but it seems that Eli did not act nor confront them. Hannah, on the other hand, was a woman who also loved the LORD, but she was barren: she had not been blessed with the children she so desperately wanted. When she came to offer sacrifices to God at the Tabernacle she pleaded with God for a son. Eli misunderstood her desperation and chided her for coming before the LORD drunk. When she explained her deep anguish, the misunderstanding was corrected and Eli blessed her. Hannah soon became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She then fulfilled her promise to God; she would dedicate her son to service in the Tabernacle. Her son was Samuel, and this is where we pick up the story in 1 Samuel 3.

Shift in the Kingdom;1 Samuel14-17
Sometimes we are guilty of wanting to get things done more than we want to do things the right way. God always does things the right way. He is aware of every person and has patience with them.
