I was reading my Bible last night in 1 Samuel. As I read the story of Hannah and how much she longed for a child of her own, I could relate and my heart ached for her. What is inspiring about Hannah is her obedience to the Lord. She prayed diligently for a son and it was through her trusting in the Lord that she received one. There is much to be learned from Hannah’s story. In the second chapter of 1 Samuel, we are given the first account of a woman’s prayer in the Old Testament. So take notice-it must be important! Children are a gift from God. Parenting can be one of the most rewarding and most difficult experiences in life. Just as Hannah, we can give our children back to God by raising them up in Christ. Pray for your children, forgive your children (they are learning!), and love your children unconditionally. Through obedience, you can teach your children about God’s faithfulness!
