The ABC of A Little Girl's Prayer

Many of us need to be more like the little girl whom the farmer found lost in his meadow. 

The farmer said to her, "Do not cry; I'll take you home." 

The little child snuggled up to him, and with a smile, said, "I knew you would; I was waiting for you." 

"Waiting for me?" said the man. "What made you think I was coming?" 

"I was praying you would." she said. 

"Praying? When I first heard you, you were saying A B C D E F G. What was that for?" 

She looked up again and said, "I'm just a little girl. I was praying all the letters of the alphabet and letting God put them together the way He wanted to. He knows I was lost, and He knows how to put them together better than I do." 

What a difference if we would only let God put the letters of our lives together.
