Psalms 38:10. My heart panteth,
That is the best sort of prayer in all the world, when there are no words, but in silence there is a panting and longing after God. We cannot explain what this panting is; but if you have ever seen a hunted stag panting for breath, you have some idea what David meant when he said, "My heart panteth."
Psalms 38:10. My strength faileth me:
That is good prayer, too. "When I am weak, then am I strong." When I cannot pray, I do pray. When my strength fails me, then God’s strength comes in to help me.
