Then Samuel said, "Speak, for your servant is listening."

Here's my version of Rita F. Pierson's inspiring statement:
“You have been chosen to be on this earth!
God's fingerprints are all over you.
You are somebody. You were somebody when you entered this world, you were somebody when you entered this service and you'll be a better somebody when you leave by God's grace.
You are powerful. You are strong. Not because of what you've done but because of what He's done in you!”
