Robert- I believe that God shut up Hannah's womb so that he could recieve the glory whenever he gave her the ability to conceive. Notice how the other wife was called her adversary, who always had the ability to have children. Penninah used that ability to make Hannah miserable. Whenever Hannah recieved the ability to concieve she was so grateful that she gave her child to dwell in the temple to serve God. It's just like when we get something for nothing, it means nothing to us. But when we work for something, we cherish it.
