    Hannah’s preparation of Samuel for a life of ministry was accomplished in just a few short years. See the qualities of motherhood that allowed her to impact young Samuel.

    "A Mother’s Gift" 1 Samuel 1 A teacher gave her class of second graders a lesson on the magnet and what it does. The next day in a written test, she included this question: "My full name has six letters. The first one is M. I pick up things. What am I?" When the test papers were turned in, the ...read more

    The Bible is full of examples of godly mothers. Hannah is one such. She was committed to God, to her husband, and to her children.

    A Mother’s Commitment I Samuel 1 Here we are again--another Mother’s Day. Time to extol the virtuous role of motherhood. Where do we look for our role models? Hopefully, we need look no further than our own family. But alas, not all mothers are good role ...read more

    This is a Mothers’ Day sermon using Samuel’s Mother Hannah and John and Charles Wesley’s Mother Susannah as godly examples for Christian Mothers today.

    Hannah and Susannah, Two Saintly Moms --I Samuel 1:9-28 Since my teenage years, when I first heard it on Mothers’ Day as a quartet number in my home Church, I have appreciated the Hymn “God, Give Us Christian Homes” by the great Baptist hymn writer B.

    Men can pray in their own way by doing what they know is right to do, by listening to the Lord as well as speaking, and by holding others and God Himself accountable to keep promises.

    The Bible tells us that God closed up Hannah’s womb. Really? Would He do that, or was this the kind of comment where we call something an "act of God?"

    Real Mothers are special people. Real mothers would like to be able to eat a whole candy bar (all by themselves) and drink a Coke without any "floaters" in it. Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox. Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy ...read more

    Persistence In The Presence: How Women Pray

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 22, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,704 views

    Women succeed in pray because they persist in trusting God, allow the whole self to pray, take God at His word, are not afraid of intensity, choose responsibility over religion, and keep their commitments.

    If, as Thomas Edison tells us, genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration, then I suspect it is also true that prayer is one per cent insistence and ninety-nine per cent persistence. Prayer is one per cent insistence, to be sure; we do, in our prayers, tell God what ...read more

    When You Give Your Child Back to God You Commit to Raise Your Kids God’s Way. Your children are not your toys to play with and enjoy life with. They belong to God and when you give your child back to God.

    Opening illustration: Have you ever given your children back to God? Some of you may be thinking – why should I? This kid is mine and I have the sole ownership – if you don’t believe it, I’ll show you their ‘Birth Certificate.’ It has my name on it to prove that I am the parent. Well I always ...read more

    We honor mothers for being their best based on their family context. The criterion is how they respond to the challenges surrounding them – the attitude and character they demonstrate in specific family context.
