Is the life in the womb of no account because you can't hold him in our arms, or put him in your hands, or only see her on a screen?"I'm Not Into Poetry":
When it comes to the Psalms and other prayers, they are best read not for our own pleasure - not for “what we get out of them” - but because they are God-given prayer language that God enjoys. It’s like God gave us his favorite song list and asked us to play it over and over again.

It's an opportunity to behave like a jerk if you wake up at 3 in the morning and you feel like it.""Doctor Feelbad":
