Religious Questions
DISCUSSED BY
DR.. S. Pdrkes Cddndn.

A. The patriarch was confronted by
life'S inexplicable mysteries The I'M
answerable facts of existence surged
upon his body and his soul. The cata-
clysms of nature and the wickedness CT
men cnoSpired against him. DestrIlc-
ton ragged around him without regard
to good or evil. The silence of God
during these stupendous calamities
seemed as strange to Job as It did to
millions of our time during the World
War.
Where lay the solution of the prob
lem? The answer was in the ageless
difference between appearance and
reality. You recall that in the sequel
OF this great drama Job was not de-
serted. The forces Of nature brought
him additional prosperity. The designs
OF his enemies collapsed. The patron
izlng coinSels Of his friends were re-
buked. God broke the awful stillne.s
and commanded His afilicted servant TO
reflect upon the infinite gulf between
the presiding mind OF the universe ana
the human mind. Faith, not sight;
trust, not comprehension. were the att
tributes becoming mortal man. Those
attributes were finally vindieated and
the confession yQn quote voices the ui-
innate triumph Of the righteous soul
over all antagonlstic circumstances.
@ What good does prayer do for a
man like myself who has not prayed
for many years.
A. Certainly IT. does not accomplish
much for those who have thrust II o,lt
OF their lives. Nor can It persuade God
TO act contrary TO His nature and will,
Nor do we have 10 entreat Him TO be-
what He is To all eternity--loving and
merciful. Your Heavenly Father
said Jesus. "knoweth what things ye
have need OF before ye ask Him"
But by the act OF prayer you recog.
nize a personal relationship with that
Father which consciously enriches the
lives of millions OF believers. 1t is in
tended TO harmonic your desires with
His purposes. to unite you with those
who are trying TO overcome evil and to
promote good in themselves and in the
world. 1t commits your shortcomings
and sin to His enlightening wisdom and
pardoning grace. 1t means that you
want what He wants for you and are
assured that this is your best attain
ment, be 1t what 1t may.
Prayer offered in such faith fosters
your spiritual life. You cannot have
character any more than you can have
intellectual culture by wishing for 1t.
It must be produced by intense devo-
ton and unSparing effort. The testi-
mony that prayer purifies and enlarges
the petitioners individuality is too con-
elusive to be set aside. Try out the
grand experiment for yourself.
