When Hannah had no child of her own, she petitioned the Lord and vowed that if God would give her a son, she would give him to the service of the Lord all of his life. God heard Hannah and she conceived and gave birth to Samuel. When he was a young boy, she took him to the house of the Lord and left him in God’s service. We are allowed to make our requests known to God. He hears our cry from upon His holy mountain. Like Samuel, our lives ought to be dedicated to the purpose for which God made us. Have you surrendered your soul to Jesus and begun walking in the purpose for which you were made?
