 In the beautiful song of 1 Samuel 2 Hannah recognizes {v.2} this great principle of sovereign grace, and of the power of God. (1 Samuel 2 by J.N. Darby)

 This is because God had revealed Himself to her in grace; because He had revealed Himself again to his faithful servant who, having received everything from Him, had kept back nothing for herself and had returned everything to Him. (1 Samuel 2:1-11 by H.L. Rossier)
 "My horn is lifted up in Jehovah" (1 Sam. 2:1). This power "is perfected in weakness" (2 Cor. 12:9); after she has repudiated all that is elevated, everything of renown in Israel, God shares this strength with a weak woman, humiliated and despised. (1 Samuel 2:1-11 by H.L. Rossier)

(1 Samuel 2:1-11 by H.L. Rossier)
