Whenever Moses held up his hand,

                       Israel prevailed;

and whenever he lowered his hand,

                       Amalek prevailed.

                              Exodus 17. 11

(Never give up praying.

Praying matters more than we can know.

Praying matters

    far beyond what we can see

    from the little spot where we stand.

"Where there is such prevailing prayer,

        something is bound to happen."

                       -- Corrie ten Boom

                            Amazing Love

We seek an answer to prayer,

    but God has a far greater victory

    already in the works.)
