Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God. A little black girl, eight years old, was setting the table, when a boy in the room said to her, "Mollie, do you pray?" The suddenness of the question confused her a little, but she said, "Yes, every night." "Do you think God hears you?" the boy asked. She answered promptly, "I know He does." "But do you think," said he, trying to puzzle her, "that He hears your prayers as readily as those of white children?" For full three minutes the child kept on with her work; then she slowly said, "Master George, I pray into God's ears, and not His eyes. My voice is just like any other little girl's, and if I say what I ought to say, God does not stop to look at my skin." Parallel Verses KJV: For there is no respect of persons with God. |
