Chana the mother of Shmuel Hanavi, prayed for an average son.  She did not want anyone with exceptional talents, nor should he be lacking basic skills.  Her request was granted as she said “here is the son that I prayed for”.  Shmuel HaNavi, grew up to be of the greatest men in our history.  He is considered in some ways to be equal to Moshe and Aron combined.  He anointed the first two kings of Israel, and did many other great things.  We should try to learn an important lesson as to what heights a person can reach when he applies himself.  Shmuel became so great because of his dedication to HaShem.  We too, we cannot say we do not have any special talents or skills, what can we accomplish?  Rather we must use what we were given to its fullest and then we will be great people!
