Hannah faced two main problems in her daily life: 1) she could not have children, which was considered a disgrace, and 2) her rival Peninnah would mock and humiliate her for being childless. This made Hannah feel abandoned by God and the people around her. Her only solution was to pour out her soul to God in prayer. When God blessed her with a son, Samuel, Hannah dedicated him to the Lord's service after preparing him for three years. Hannah's example of faith and dedication to God despite her struggles is presented as inspiring.
