Prayer and Ministerial Success
Acts 6:3-6
Why, brothers, look you out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom…


A minister observing a poor man by the roadside breaking stones with a hammer, and kneeling to get at his work the better, said to him, "Ah, John, I wish I could break the stony hearts of my hearers as easily as you are breaking these stones!" The man replied, "Perhaps, master, you don't work on your knees?"
