This character study is done by my youngest, Micah. Micah has a brother called Samuel and when I asked him to do a character study, he said, "I would like to study Samuel!" What a great choice, for Samuel was a pivotal point in Israel's history. He was the last judge of Israel before they requested a king. Samuel's life is a testimony of how faithful and godly parents can truly influence the life of a child even when they are not able to be with the child while he/she is growing up. The story of Hannah and Samuel is my motivation to pray for my children without ceasing. He was the inspiration to name our eldest, Samuel. After all, my Samuel was also "asked of God". Read on to hear the story of Samuel through Micah's eyes.

Courageous Judah who made many wrong decisions along the way but brave enough to accept that he was wrong. An honest man who was ready to make right his wrong doing. That was how Keira described Judah after she finished his character study.
