Not my strength



I Samuel 2:10 It is not by strength that one prevails…

This is from the prayer of Hannah, prayed when she brought Samuel to the temple to serve there.  She knew from her own experience that faith in God and prayer is the way to prevail over challenges.  She had agonized over her desire for a child and had not had any strength in herself t make that desire come to reality.  This is a good reminder to me to not work to make things happen… it is not my strength that accomplishes God’s purposes.  It is my faith in God’s strength that gives me strength and success.
