In this sermon, we dive deep into the story of Hannah from 1 Samuel 1—a woman whose silent suffering and heartfelt prayer led to one of the most powerful turning points in Israel’s history. As you reflect on Hannah’s emotional journey, we’ll see what it means to carry silent burdens, how God works even in seasons of delay, and the power of raw, honest prayer. This message is for anyone who has ever felt forgotten, misunderstood, or spiritually exhausted. Join us as we explore how surrender and faith—even in the absence of immediate answers—can open the door to peace and purpose.   Key Topics Covered:   - God’s timing vs. our expectations - The emotional and cultural weight of Hannah’s barrenness - Why brokenness often leads to the most sincere prayers - The danger of silent suffering and the gift of spiritual community - How Eli’s misunderstanding reflects common struggles in the church - Finding peace before your prayer is answered - The legacy of Hannah’s prayer and the birth of Samuel - Encouragement to bring your honest, unfiltered heart to God   This episode is part of our teaching series on "The Power of Prayer." Don’t miss this powerful reminder that God sees you—even when no one else does.
