SAMUEL 1
5 but the Lord had shut up her womb.
6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.
7 And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?
There are situations the Lord Himself has ordained to happen in our lives To a point that everyone around you gets to know the challenges you are facing
Your rivals do not mock you anywhere but wait for you to turn to God so that they may make you angry by Him, some would say he/she claims to be a Christian why doesn't God intervene in his/her situation. Where is their God? It becomes a pain to a point that not even a good salary or love from people can fill that gap.
But the wise Hannah showed us how it's done. Whenever others would party and feast, she left the tables and turned to God in fasting. She did not tell anyone she was fasting, but they took notice of her. She did not report her rivals to people or post on social media but turned to God in fasting and prayer.
