✨ Welcome to the Month of June! 💚
The Month of the Emerald of Self-Control 💚
"So Hannah rose after they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat by the doorpost of the temple of the Lord..." —1 Samuel 1:9–18
Hannah shines as a woman of remarkable self-control, faith, and perseverance. Though burdened with deep sorrow and provocation, she did not allow her emotions to lead her into bitterness or despair. Instead, she poured out her heart before God with humility, restraint, and unwavering trust. Her self-control was rooted in faith, enabling her to respond with grace and confidence in God's timing.
This month, may we walk in the Emerald of Self-Control —governing our thoughts, words, emotions, and actions through the power of God. May we remain steadfast in seasons of waiting, respond with wisdom under pressure, and trust the Lord to fulfill His purposes in our lives. ✨
