When we wait, not only do we exhibit patience and obedience, but we exhibit trust. Waiting is knowing God will do what God intends, and it’s a way of honoring the trust we have that God keeps His promises.

The significance of Hannah’s word, “For this child I prayed,” refers to God’s power, faithfulness, and love. Hannah struggled with depression, and once she was able to be pregnant with Samuel, joy filled her heart.
