With great devotion, divine intervention comes without appeal.

Hannah, in the first book of Samuel, is the example of a heart that suffers but keeps trust in God alone.

In her distress, she turns to God. She went to the sanctuary of the Ark of the Covenant in Shiloh and asked the Lord to remove her stigma and grant her a child. In her attitude, she showed trust in the Lord despite the enormous pain that her sterility caused her. As a result, the Lord answered Hannah's prayer and granted her a son whom she named Samuel. Like Hannah, let us sing is a hymn of praise to the God of love. Let us put our faith in Him even in the very challenging times.

Jesus demonstrates this love of God in the gospels by casting out unclean spirits and teaching with authority. Jesus comes in fact to free our lives from spiritual sterility, but also from all the impure spirits that affect and afflict humanity.

Lord, Jesus, thank you for freeing me from my distress!
