Lord, when my soul is weary and my heart is tired and sore, and I have that failing feeling that I can’t take any more; then let me know the freshening found in simple, childlike prayer; when the kneeling soul knows surely that a listening Lord is there.
–Ruth Bell Graham (1920-2007), from Ruth Bell Graham’s Collected Poems
