an expression of gratitude to God
for all that he had already given.
In so far as Paul prayed o

In his petitions was that ne might

example of Gods grace in giving
so abundantly to men.
Spirit of Prayer
It makes a great deal of differ

that spirit, and no prayer can De
essentially and truly Christian
prayer which is not prayer TO a
gracious and loving God,
IT would alter a great deal Oh
8our praying if we thought for a

address our petitions. SO often
we pray as if we were addressing
some grudging and reluctant mon
arch who would not give his sub

demand.
1t is true that we cannot re-
cclve even the good things OF Goa

Paul is always reminding us, Just
