Thought for the Day 9/102//08
If you think you're too small to be effective,
you've never been to bed with a mosquito.

The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
James 5:16
Now Jesus was telling them a parable to show
that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,
saying, "In a certain city there was a judge
who did not fear God and did not respect man.
"There was a widow in that city,
and she kept coming to him, saying,
'Give me legal protection from my opponent.'
"For a while he was unwilling; but afterward he said to himself,
'Even though I do not fear God nor respect man,
yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her legal protection,
otherwise by continually coming she will wear me out.'"
And the Lord said, "Hear what the unrighteous judge said; now,
will not God bring about justice for His elect
who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over them?
"I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly.”
Luke 18:1-8
