Growing in godliness is growing more into the image we were originally designed for. Hannah grows in her godliness through suffering. Her suffering is complex: the pain from not being able to have children and the pain from being in a polygamous marriage, and then all the cultural expectations that go along with those things. She offers her prayer to God, and she is at peace. She knows her God, who was good to the core, new her pain and would answer her however he felt best. In suffering, find rest in the gracious God who hears you.
