Hannah's Prayer — a 5-minute devotion for Balwin families

1 Samuel 1 · Praying honestly and eating again

Year after year Hannah wept and prayed for a child, so silently that the priest thought she was drunk. She poured out her heart, went home, and ate again — her face no longer downcast, before anything had changed.

Use this one on the Balwin weekend, when there is room for a longer conversation. Read 1 Samuel 1, talk through the question properly, then write the memory verse somewhere everyone will see it on Monday.

Memory verse

“I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him.”
1 Samuel 1:27

Table question

What have you been praying about for a long time?

30-second prayer

God, hear the prayers we have prayed for years. Give us peace before the answer comes. Amen.

Make it stick: on the way through Balwin tomorrow, one person says the first half of "I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.

Tomorrow: young Samuel hears his name (1 Samuel 3). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s
