1 Samuel 1:3-28 Does God Care?

Does God really care, especially when the waiting is long and the pain doesn’t lift? In this sermon from 1 Samuel 1:3–28, we follow Hannah’s story of deep sorrow, honest prayer, unexpected peace, and costly obedience to discover a God who sees our pain, hears our prayers, and gives peace before answers come. Most importantly, we’re reminded that God’s compassion flows not from need, but from love, a truth ultimately revealed at the cross of Christ. If you’ve ever wondered whether God is distant or disinterested, this message invites you to look again, upward, to the Savior who proves He cares.
