12 Jun How problems drive us to God
Clinging to hope is difficult when circumstances are miserable and show no signs of improving.
🎯This can be especially discouraging when we know that our all-powerful God could remedy the situation and fulfill our dreams but hasn’t.
đź’ĄBut problems come with many concealed benefits
🎯This is probably how Hannah felt. She was heartbroken because “the Lord had closed her womb.” This alone was a source of great disgrace for a Hebrew woman of that day.
🎯But Hannah suffered even more because of the deliberate provocation by her husband’s other wife, who was blessed with children.
🎯Yet Hannah was a woman of great faith, even in the midst of her disappointment and pain.
🎯She never gave up on God but let her pain drive her to Him.
🎯In desperation, she poured her heart out to the Lord and promised that if He’d fulfill her desire for a son, she would give Him the child.
🎯Hannah’s example of faith is an encouragement to lay our hopes before God—the only. 🎯One who can fulfill our desires or align them with His will.
