Here are some different ways to pray:
·
Hannah
o “In her bitterness she prayed
to the LORD, weeping copiously,
and she made a vow, promising: "O LORD of hosts,
if you look with pity on the misery of your handmaid,
if you remember me and do not forget me,
if you give your handmaid a male child,
I will give him to the LORD for as long as he lives;”
and she made a vow, promising: "O LORD of hosts,
if you look with pity on the misery of your handmaid,
if you remember me and do not forget me,
if you give your handmaid a male child,
I will give him to the LORD for as long as he lives;”
o “…she remained long at prayer
before the LORD.”
o “…praying silently though her
lips were moving…”
·
Eli thought she was drunk!
o “I am an unhappy woman.
I have had neither wine nor liquor;
I was only pouring out my troubles to the LORD.”
I have had neither wine nor liquor;
I was only pouring out my troubles to the LORD.”
o “Deep
sorrow and misery”

When we’re sad, depressed, anxious: pray, pray,
pray!
