Part 47 (1/2)

PRAYER ANSWERED FOR EMPLOYMENT.

”A foreigner without means and friendless tried in vain for ten months to succeed in finding some employment. He requested your prayers to G.o.d, and _G.o.d answered_. In less than eighteen hours a splendid position was offered to him. He and his wife give thanks, and pray that they may devote their lives usefully to the cause of G.o.d who has been so good to them.”

FOUND EMPLOYMENT.

”G.o.d has answered our united prayers, and given employment to his child.”

AN OLD LADY SAVED FROM LITTLE ANNOYANCES.

”Your prayers have been heard and answered in mercy. The old lady has not been quite so much annoyed. Thank G.o.d for some peace for the aged one, not able to bear what younger people can, that go out into the world and can find relief. I thank my heavenly Father for his loving- kindness and tender mercy for those that cry to him in trouble.”

INSANITY DISPELLED.

”I sent a pet.i.tion months ago, for prayers for an insane husband. Your prayers have been answered. He has rapidly recovered.”

RECLAIMED.

”I must ask you to return thanks with me that your prayers have been answered. An intemperate brother has been reclaimed.”

RESTORED TO HEALTH.

”One month since, I requested prayer specially for my own family. My oldest son, who was then sick, has been restored to his usual health.

'_The prayer of faith hath indeed saved the sick_.'”

TEMPTATIONS REMOVED.

”Some months ago I asked your prayers for a son in college, amid great temptations. I desire to give thanks that those temptations have been removed.”

THE HEART OF A CLERGYMAN TURNED FROM THOUGHTS OF AMBITION.

”I sent a request to you for a young man, who was called, and eminently fitted for the ministry, but was tempted, by ambition, not to listen to the divine call, and obstacles had hedged his way somewhat. After I requested your prayers in his behalf, this temptation was removed, and nearly one hundred persons were converted in the church which was under his care.”

A GRATEFUL TRIBUTE.
