Hannah, the mother of Samuel in the Bible, was an ordinary woman with extraordinary need. Hannah blew the lid off of conventional Theology of her time. Hannah pushed aside the proper and respectable forms of prayer and sought God on her own like her soul was on fire, (metaphorically it was). Hannah did something no one else of her time could do. That was obtain a miracle from God. Hannah perceived her need with such emotional intensity she would be called a nut today. She was believing for the impossible, a son to her barren womb. But when the intensity of her passion for God's will in her life intersected with the agony of her need, God literally took notice and the miraculous occurred. Hannah metaphorically ripped the temple roof off seeking the healing power of God. In today's vernacular she was, "Hell bent" to get her answer to prayer, but in this case perhaps, "Heaven bent" would be more appropriate. So why is it so hard for us to believe that God will hear our prayers today? Marvin Botts
