We are strong when we are weak because we gain our strength-by prayer, and our weakness is our best argument in supplication.-Jacob never conquered until he limped, nay, until he fell. When the-sinew shrank, the suppliant triumphed. When you are engaged in-prayer, plead your strength, and you will get nothing- then plead-your weakness, and you will prevail. There is no better plea with-Divine love than weakness and pain- nothing can so prevail with the-great heart of God as for your heart to faint and swoon. The man-who rises in prayer to tears and agony, and feels all the while as if-he could not pray, and yet must pray-he is the man who will see-the desire of his soul.
