DevotionalHannah: The Woman Who Surrendered Her Deepest Longing
Text: 1 Samuel 1–2 Theme: What you surrender to God is never lost. Hannah’s story begins with a profound, quiet agony. It begins with emptiness. An empty womb, an empty place at the table, an empty space in her arms. She is deeply loved by her husband, but human love cannot fill the hollow ache of an unanswered prayer. She is mocked mercilessly by her rival, Peninnah, but the cruelty outside is secondary to the silent longing inside. She travels to Shiloh year after year, carrying the […]https://osasproject.com/2026/05/27/hannah-the-woman-who-surrendered-her-deepest-longing/

Bryan KingHolding the Line: The Strength of the Divine Stall
668 words, 4 minutes read time.
Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
— Psalm 27:14 (NIV).
The core principle here is that spiritual endurance isn’t a stagnant pause; it is the tactical holding of a position while the Commander finishes the logistical work beyond your line of sight.
Finding Strength in the Waiting Room of God’s Timing
The air in the waiting room is stale, and your knuckles are white from gripping a steering wheel that isn’t moving. You’ve done the work, you’ve put in the sweat, and you’ve bled for the vision you believe God placed in your gut, yet the door remains bolted from the inside. It feels like a stall—like the engine of your life has cut out on a dead-end road while the rest of the world screams past you in the fast lane. You start to think God’s watch is broken, or worse, that He’s forgotten your coordinates. But a man of faith knows that the most vital, bone-deep growth happens in the dark, underneath the soil, long before the first sprout breaks the surface. In the kingdom of God, waiting isn’t a passive sentence; it’s a forge where the heat of delay burns off the dross of your arrogance and leaves behind the tempered resolve of your character. If God handed you the promotion, the marriage, or the breakthrough the second you demanded it, your ego would hijack the credit and your soul would be too soft to handle the weight of the blessing. Exegesis—the critical explanation of the text—reveals that David wasn’t writing Psalm 27 from a sun-drenched palace balcony; he was writing it while his enemies were breathing down his neck, proving that waiting for the Lord is an act of high-stakes courage, not a white flag of surrender. You aren’t being sidelined; you’re being prepared for a weight of glory that would crush the man you were yesterday. Stop looking at your watch and start looking at your foundation, because when the season shifts, you’ll need the roots you’re growing right now to keep you from being uprooted by the very success you’re praying for.
Taking Decisive Action in the Midst of the Stall
Identify one area of your life where you have been complaining about the delay and commit today to kill the “why me” narrative. Instead of asking God when the season will end, ask Him what specific piece of your character needs to be hardened or healed before you move forward, and execute the one small, disciplined task in front of you that you’ve been neglecting while waiting for the “big thing” to happen.
Prayer
Lord, I’m tired of the wait and the silence feels heavy against my chest. Give me the backbone to stand my ground and the wisdom to trust Your clock over my own. Strip away my impatience and forge a spirit in me that is ready for the heavy lifting ahead. Amen.
Reflection
- What is one discipline or habit you can sharpen today while the “big” answer is still over the horizon?
- What specific “closed door” are you currently trying to kick down instead of trusting the timing of the Architect?
- In what ways has your character grown during past seasons of waiting that you were too frustrated to notice at the time?
- Is your current anger born out of a desire for God’s will, or a desire for your own immediate comfort?

A Polymath ChristianI Thought Kyrie Was a Girl: Rediscovering an 80’s Song That Was Really a Prayer
I knew songs like “Friends,” “El Shaddai,” and “Awesome God” were Christian. But “Kyrie”? That one surprised me. It turns out the song I never questioned was actually a prayer hiding in plain sight. If you want, I can tailor the excerpt to fit your WordPress layout or SEO style.
