Reflection

Hannah prayed so intensely at the temple that the priest thought she was drunk. Years of longing poured out, and God heard her. Her story doesn't promise every prayer is answered the same way, but it shows God listens to the deepest ache.

A prayer

Father, stay close while I wait. Remind me that delay isn't the same as being forgotten.
