NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER
Sir, —A wonderful opportunity was offered us by our beloved King when he asked us to unite in a national day of prayer. I trust that the services were well attended in order that we could all show our faithfulness to God and ask His guidance and protection for our fighting forces, and tor ourselves. The Lord’s prayer teaches us to pray for others as well as for ourselves. The words, “I,” “me,” or “my” have no place in it—we are like radio receiving sets all God’s power is at hand to guide anc. protect us, but it is left to us to make the contact by prayer. “Holy Father in Thy mercy Hear our prayer, Keep our loved ones now far distant ’neath Thy care.” B. SINCERE.
