Lord John Taylor - http://www.assistnews.net/Stories/2008/s08090191.htm - http://www.lordtaylor.org Lord Taylor at the House of Lords (English parliament) explained about his mother's worry because he was so little.  "She prayed, ‘God, I have 2 things in this world; 1 is my faith in You and 2ndly, my little baby John. I pray that one day he will become one of the great men of England.’ It was a crazy prayer at the time, because there she was, poor, black, and homeless."  John's written testimony and CD can be found at his web site.
