   …cry so much she couldn’t eat.” 1 Samuel 1:7 “
   … I’m depressed …” 1 Samuel 1:15
2. FIND A SAFE PLACE
   “I stand in a safe place. Lord, I praise You in the great meeting.” Psalm 26:12
3. TURN MY ATTENTION TO GOD
   “… she prayed to the Lord.” 1 Samuel 1:10 “
   … I was pouring out my heart to the Lord.” 1 Samuel 1:15
4. LET SOMEONE KNOW I AM HURTING
   “Share each other’ s troubles and problems, and so obey our Lord’s command.” Galatians 6:2
5. BELIEVE GOD WILL HELP ME
