They tell about a fifteen-year-old boy in an orphans’ home who had an incurable stutter. One Sunday the minister was detained and the boy volunteered to say the prayer in his stead. He did it perfectly, too, without a single stutter. Later he explained, “I don’t stutter when I talk to God. He loves me.”

I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
Psalm 17:6

If Christ had paid 99.9% of the debt of sin, not one of us would have a chance at heaven.
Charles Swindoll
The world ignores us, but we are known to God; we live close to death, but here we are, still very much alive. We have been injured but kept from death. Our hearts ache, but at the same time we have the joy of the Lord. We are poor, but we give rich spiritual gifts to others. We own nothing, and yet we enjoy everything.
2 Corinthians 6:9-10
The Living Bible
Once I sought a time and place for solitude and prayer; but now where’er I find thy face I find a closet there.
