I would like to forget business this week and recall to you a few words from one of America's great minds, Harry Emer son Fosdick. It has always appealed to me as much more than just a saying, rather It is something that the more you read it the closer you get to its real meaning. And now to quote, "Real prayer always does one of two things: If either frees us from the trouble we fear or else it gives us the strength and courage to meet the trouble when it comes."
