Antioch Baptist Church of Cleveland

Her grandmother tells her, baby, will you help grandma reach up there in the cabinet and bring down some bowls? And the little girl says, well, grandma, I can't. They're too tall. It's too high. It's over my head. It's beyond me. And grandma said, yes you can, baby. Go get the step stool. Can I tell you something? That's what prayer is. Prayer is the stool that lets us reach into the high things of the faith that are beyond us.
