Hannah Trusted
"For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition."1 Samuel 1:27
Reflection
Hannah cried hard wanting a child and kept praying. God heard. She taught that persistent prayer is not weak faith: it is big faith.
Prayer
God, teach me to pray without giving up. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
