A grandfather was walking through his yard when he heard his granddaughter repeating the alphabet in a tone of voice that sounded like a prayer. He asked her what she was doing. The little girl explained: "I'm praying but I can't think of exactly the right words so I'm just saying all the letters and God will put them together for me because He knows what I'm thinking."
