Bible Reading / When Life Throws You a Curveball

Day 2: Hannah's Story | What do you do when life looks different than you thought?

Read: 1 Samuel 1:10-11 

Hannah's story in the book of 1 Samuel centers around her strong desire to have a child and her unwavering faith in God's plan despite her unfulfilled dreams. In her disappointment about not having a baby, Hannah turned to the Lord in prayer, promising to dedicate her child to him if her plea was answered. 

God heard Hannah鈥檚 prayer, and she later gave birth to a son named Samuel. Hannah committed to raise Samuel to serve God. Hannah's story shows the power of prayer and the strength of faith, inspiring us to trust in God's timing and purpose even during life's tough times. 

Hannah's dedication to God, even in the face of unmet expectations, is a powerful example of finding strength through faith. Her story reminds us that trusting God in challenging situations can lead to unexpected blessings, just like when Hannah was blessed with her son, Samuel.  

Hannah's story encourages us to seek God's guidance in all situations, finding joy and contentment even when our desires aren鈥檛 fulfilled. By following Hannah's example and trusting in God's plans, we can discover blessing and purpose in all of life鈥檚 circumstances. 

Prayer: Seek God's guidance to find joy and contentment when life doesn't go as expected.
