To PRAYER Editor OF Times Dispatch:
Sir,--In answer to "Doutter's''
follows:
Prayer is the Unborn. natural. spon-
taneous appeal of the human heart
to It's Maker. Preserver and Hone
The Eternal cares not a tinker's ran
for many words, much speaking, nor
lengthy forms. Neither does He re-
ticula- thirg. Whether they ask or
not He voluntarily administers 10 the
continual wants and needs OF His off
trite heart and broken spirit He never
spurns. but in His own way proffers
the healing balm of His fatherly bene-
eiction.
Although the Unseen does not need
our prayers to prompt Him to action
yet. on the other hand. we mortaIs
very much need tho quieting Offices OF
prayer, and at times need it bad
Prayer is to the human heart what the
safety-valve is to the steam boiler.
