He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord.
For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the Lord behold the earth;
To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;"
Psalms 102:16-20
There are a lot of scriptures about the Lord caring for the poor and for prisoners, and perhaps that is something we should pause to consider... the difference between the way that our society treats those groups of people and the way that the Lord wishes them to be treated.

Today, let's think about what we can do to make the lives of those specific groups better, and of course not neglect everyone else. :) And let's be confident that the Lord also hears *our* prayers and groanings when we are suffering and in need.
