Helping the hurting relate to our Merciful God
The Spokesman Assailed by inadequacies, I wonder, How can I do anything effectively? Yet, the stars and all creation praise You without a voice.

Lord, You are the potter, not limited by our imperfections. You carefully work the clay, heat, refine, beautify, perfect. I am your vessel, Lord. You have called me. You have given me Your Holy Spirit. Therefore speak through this vessel as You have ordained. — Judith Vander Wege
