1 Samuel 1:1-11 (NKJV)
Brokenness comes in several different ways. It can be a feeling of brokenness because of a sense of in-adequateness, pain that has been experienced from a broken relationship or the appearance that nothing looks better in the future. When that feeling of brokenness sets in, it leaves you feeling like all joy and happiness is gone or out of reach.
In the scriptures today, we find a young lady named Hannah that finds healing from her broken condition by seeking the Lord with all her heart.
