PEACE
Sir,—This. *is what the world craves for. One sure means to bring it about i.s Prayer. This great power which is the property of every liv« ing soul born into this life—its power -is beyond measure. There is nothing that Prayer Avill not. attain. If the peoples of the world, could get down to pray to Him the whole atmosphere would be change ed for the better. For He alone knows what is best. Sin, which most of us are likely to fall to, is the very obstacle to Peace. If the world to-day would j.oin in Prayers for peace then God would certainly bring a peace which would sur-r pass all understanding. His command to the whole world is ''Ask and ye .shall receive." He, in His wisdom, will grant what is best. Let us pray to Him with such confidence as a little child petitions its mother. No poor sinner is denied this great privilege. I>t is the want of Prayer that has led the world into the strife ;in which we are now engulfed. It is only through Prayer that, true peace can be restored in the hearts of the people. Yours etc., WALTER F. DARBY.
