Thus Far
"Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, 'Thus far the Lord has helped us.'"
— 1 Samuel 7:12
Ebenezer means stone of help. Samuel put a rock by the roadside. Anyone walking past would ask what it was for, and the story got told again. Notice the wording: thus far. Not everything is finished and not every problem is solved. It marks how far God has already brought them, at a spot people keep walking past.
