Tonight's family reading · Kahama

Hannah's Prayer — a 5-minute devotion for Kahama 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.

This works best in Kahama as a bedtime reading. Lights low, 1 Samuel 1 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "praying honestly and eating again"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.

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 Kahama 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.
