on PRAYER.
Many persons prayers DO not &c
/. higher than their heads, They think
the heavens are mIde eli bass and II Is
no use to pray. They fuel about ready
to give up praying. Way Is this : 1t
is because they do not comply with
the requirements of the Gospel OF the
Son OF God. God does near and an
swer prayer. When God does not
answer our prayers 1t Is becHlIse there
Is something in our lives that Keeps
back the answer
desGs was man of prayer. He was
both divine ana human. lis prlyc !
