warrior escapes by his great strength. A horse
is a vain hope for deliverance despite all its
great strength it cannot save. Psalm
3316-17

man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast

riches. Jeremiah 923
15We are privileged to know that he knows or needs
before we ask him. This is what gives Christian
prayer its boundless confidence and its joyous
certainty. It matters little what form of prayer
we adopt or how many words we use, what matters
is the faith which lays hold
16on God and touches the heart of the Father who
knew us long before we came to him. Genuine
prayer is never good works, an exercise or a
pious attitude, but it is always the prayer of a
child to a Father. - Dietrich Bonhoeffer
