“I rejoice in Thy salvation. There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside Thee: neither is there any rock like our God” (1 Samuel 2:1b-2).
Hannah worshipped the LORD in simple and yet profound ways. Earlier she had promised the LORD that if He would bless her with a son, she would give him back to the LORD to be used in His service. God answered and Hannah kept her promise (1 Samuel 1:24). God had wonderful plans for this child named Samuel. Now it was time to leave her little boy with Eli at the Temple. I cannot begin to imagine how hard this must have been for her, and yet she rejoiced (2:1). God was her stability and she referred to Him as her rock (2:2). We belong to the same LORD. May we rejoice in His holiness and power today as well.
For today: Lord, please give us the same devotion as manifested by Hannah.
