TTfT 0031 – Chana was childless for many years. She had a very difficult time of it, and eventually prayed a particular heartfelt, breakthrough prayer which resulted in Hashem’s blessing her with a very special child. Shmuel. Shmuel would grow up to be the prophet who would anoint both king Shaul and king Dovid. Many lessons are learned from Chana’s prayer and are incorporated in the way we pray.
