Read this Twice

"For the happy man prayer is only a jumble of words, until the day when sorrow comes to explain to him the sublime language by means of which he speaks to God."

Alexandre Dumas

I LOVED this quote when I read it tonight.  And the more I read it over the more it strikes a stronger cord in my heart.  How true that when all is well we just pray to our Heavenly Father, but when trial befalls us, we plead, beg, cry for his mercy.  When our prayers should always carry that same fervent gratitude even when it is good.  I think even more then because we can truly see the Lord's blessings in our lives.
