A Mother's Day Miracle
Steve Wagers
1 Samuel 1:1-10
1. The Problem She Faced
A) Represented a Physical Condition
b) Revealed a Spiritual Conclusion
2. The Pain She Felt
A) Ruthless Criticism
b) Relentless Contempt
3. The Prayer She Formed
A) Her Approach to the Lord
1) She Prayed Openly
2) She Prayed Committedly
3) She Prayed Fervently
b) Her Answer from the Lord

He governs land and sea.
He wields a mighty scepter,
On lower powers than he.
But mightier power and stronger,
Man from his throne has hurled,
For the hand that rocks the cradle

On May 9, 1914, President Woodrow Wilson officially designated the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. Ever since that day, we are told that more cards and telephone calls are made on Mother's Day than any other holiday.

The introduction to 1 Samuel is the most heart-wrenching stories in the Bible. It involves a lady by the name of Hannah who was facing a set of the most undesirable circumstances one could imagine. Yet, when it was all said and done, she experienced a Mother's Day miracle.
his passage is often used in connection to a baby dedication, but I want us to look at it from the standpoint of this lady who so desperately wanted to experience a Mother's Day miracle.
