1 Samuel 1-3 | The Poured Out Soul

The chaos of Judges has seeped into the beginning of Samuel. A women barren of children, a priesthood barren of morality, and a nation barren of the word of a god. So Hannah prays. And the word of God is birthed through the prophet Samuel. We too are barren. Negative emotions are difficult to face. But the only way to fruitfulness is to address and confront these emotions. And prayer creates an excelllent space to do so.
