About This Quote
When a person is at a loss for words, they turn to prayer. When a person has a great deal of doubt, they turn to prayer. When a person feels exhausted and overwhelmed, they turn to prayer. In short, when a person can't see how anything good can come from their situation, they turn to prayer. The purpose of that turning is not only to ask for help from an all-powerful God but also to express gratitude for the little things in life that bring joy and comfort.
