"Three preachers sat discussing the best positions for prayer while a telephone repairman worked nearby. "Kneeling is definitely best," claimed one."

      "No," another contended. "I get the best results standing with my hands outstretched to Heaven."

      "You're both wrong," the third insisted.

"The most effective prayer position is lying prostrate, face down on the floor."

The repairman could contain himself no longer. "Hey, fellas, " he interrupted, "the best prayin' I ever did was hangin' upside down

from a telephone pole."*

The repairman points out an important lesson for us. What God weighs most from us is a motive why we do it...in the center of our hearts,

Proverbs 16:2
All a man's ways seem innocent to him,

but motives are weighed by the LORD.
