) was also a good king despite having a bad father in King Amon I suppose the verse—“A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit,” has some exceptions. In Biblical history, Samuel was known for his obedience. He was a fair judge and a very obedient prophet. Like father, like son, Samuel’s sons, Joel and Abijah, also became judges. But unlike their father Samuel, the sons took bribes and became corrupt.
In Hebrew, the name Samuel means, the “Lord hears.” When Samuel learned that his own preferred “candidate” King Saul faltered, he mourned astells us, Now the Lord said to Samuel, “You have mourned long enough for Saul. I have rejected him as king of Israel, so fill your flask with olive oil and go to Bethlehem. Find a man named Jesse who lives there, for I have selected one of his sons to be my king.” Samuel obeyed and eventually anointed King David, despite Samuel’s preference towards Saul.
So, for the 14 million who voted for Leni Robredo, let’s be “Pink Samuels,” and, in obedience, accept the reality that she did not win the elections. After all, Leni Robredo said that her fight continues, but not to win an election, but to achieve “a good kind of governance” that our country badly needs. Samuel stood firm on God’s wisdom; we should do the same. Let’s take in the comfort in the Lord who foils the plans of the nations and thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
For Leni’s supporters, be pink and never stop in sharing kindness to others yet be like Samuel who mourned yet accepted the will of our Almighty God. Be pink by helping the country through various volunteer initiatives organized by Leni Robredo yet be like Samuel who never begrudgingly obeyed God.
