Hannah had asked something of the Lord, and He had given it to her. Now what is she going to do with it? She says, “I’m not going to keep him for my own enjoyment; I’m going to give him to the Lord.”
Sometimes young people seem to congratulate themselves on the possession of certain advantages. Perhaps they feel they come from good families, or that they are in wealthy circumstances, or that they have a superior intellect and education. The question is, If God has given something to you, what use are you making of it? Will you lend what you have been given to the Lord?
