THIS FiIKQUlMAK3 WEEKLY, HERTFORD.. N. C., FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 21,' 1941 SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSOR J'JSSLS CALLS TO HIAYER International Sunday School Leeaon for February 23, 1941 Golden Text: "Lord, teach us to pray." Luke 11:1. Lesson Text: Luke 18.1-14. In considering prayer, there ia much for us to think about. What is prayer? Why should we culti vate it and how? How far should we depend upon it in ordinary and unusual affairs of life? The person who believes in the reality of Jesus and neglecta prayei is neglecting an avenue which leads to great comfort and blessing. Time and again Jesus sought, by word and example, to enlighten his dis ciples about the function and power of prayer, term Mtitii flow Off Press The new annual issue of "Agricul tural Statistics," published by the State Department of Agriculture to serve as a guide to farmers, farm leaders and others in planning and determining agricultural progress, is now off the press and available foi distribution.

The first emphasized the need for constant prayer and the second warned against an attitude oi self-sufficiency in righteousness, which would destroy the value of prayer. We have the picture of an unjust judge, fearless and defiant of God and man who was finally prevailed upon to execute justice by continued urging and seeking. Therefore, the Christian is free to "represent all our interests, all our wants, great and small, without reserve, and with prolonged repetition." No man can earnestfly desire any moral quality without tending in himself toward the goal. Prayer fixes our aim, at tracts our own efforts, and assures our own cooperation with God. One should not have a false notion about prayer. If we ask for sel- fish, harmful things we will not ac-j quire them. Adoniram Judson could say: "I have never been deeply in terested in any object and prayed sincerely and earnestly for it, but ai some time no matter how distant the day, somehow, in some shape, probably the best I should have de vised it came." His experience not only testifies to a great faith but to a spirit in harmony with divine pui poses. God answers prayer if the request is in keeping with His plans and beneficial in its entire effect. People who have puzzfled over un answered prayer might critically ex amine their own purpose in asking or carefully consider if their judge ment as to its desirability is wisely taken. Sometimes our petitions, if granted, would harm us; often, they would prevent greater blessings in the future. The honest believer in prayer accepts the answer whatever it may be, as the better judgement of an Eternal Being, superior in love and wisdom to the supplicant. Pray er without such trust lacks an es sential element of faith and sin cerity. No greater contrast in attitude would be presented than exhibited by the Pharisee and the PuMican represented in the parable as pray ing in the Temple. The former, selfi righteous in his own estimate and conscious that his formal religious rites have won him a similar ao-1 praisal from the public, realizes no TURKEYS GIANT BRONZE WANTED SPLIT OAK AND PINE wood cut in four-foot lengths.
