Golden Text: Lord, teach us to pray.—Luke, x1.1. Jesus sovght to impress upon His dis- ciples “that they ought always to pray, and not to faint,” bzcause He knew that through the long delay of His re- turn there was the danger that they would cease to pray for His second coming. Some may, becausz of philoso- phical reasons, which are not as sound as they may think, question the value of prayer. Nevertheless, Sabatier held that all men were incurably religious be- cause they instinctively seek solace and strennh in prayer in every erisis. From the dawn of history to the present mo- ment man has been a praying being. Socrates, Epictetus, Xenophon, Delgl thenes and Pericles supplicated their xodn for help. While we would find, as Augustine has pointed out, that it would be quite dlmeull to “without ceasing bend the knee, bow the body, or lift up the hands,” if our Lord were calling for us to constantly observe a definite attitude of the body and ex- press in language the longing of the | soul. We may have a prayer of the spirit without intermission, so that our whole life may become, what Origen conceived that the life of a Christian should be, ‘“one great connected prayer.” Not only in the parables of the les- son and His teachings in the chapter from which our lesson is taken, but by | His practice in His own life our Lord | has taught us the elements of prayer. He found rest after a day of strenuous service in communion with God. Every important event in His ministry was preceded by a night of prayer. He come manded His followers to pray that they might be filled with the Holy Ghost. He taught them that prayer would pre- pare them to endure sorrow and trials. The apostles knew that the Master's experience confirmed His recommen- dations of their living a life of prayer. He encouraged His disciples to perse- vere in the exercise of the prlvlleg:lm prayer, because He was drivigg e the fact that “all things are possible with God” and callln( upon them to “have faith in God.” Spirit of Earnestness. ‘There was an evidence of boldness upon the part of the Master when He drew an illustration from the corrupt political judiciary of His day to teach the necessity of being earnest in prayer. Nothing could more inadequately and unsuitably represent a loving Heavenly Father than a corrupt, selfish, unsym- pathetic judge. Yet the earnestness nd continual seeking of the poor widow 0 had been wronged succeeded in perluldlng the judge to give her jus- tice because he feared that if he did not she would “weary him,” or literally give him a black eye. The message that Jesus sought to impress by this parable was not that God was like the judge or suppliant widow, but that if her spirit of earnestness the poor woman could secure justice from a cor- rupt judge, then the trustful and earnest servants can depend upon the Heavenly Father answering their prayers, even if there appeared to be a delay in the Lord’s return. There is’encouragement here for us to pray without giving up. ho'pe of our pnyen being answered. If there is a y in the coming of our Lord, we mly rely upon God's protection in every hour of danger, kvuhle or trial. He makes “all things to work 'og!ther for good to them that love the Lord” that the testings of oul' daily life are essential to our spiritual good and the development of our character. All be- | ]uvm are the elect of God. Through | is grace H> has chosen them out of | lhe mass of humanity and has drawn them by His love unto Himself through their faith in Jesus Christ for the pur- pote of saving them and fitting for His service. We have, therefore, grounds for continuing earnestly in our prayers for the development of Christ's church and the advancement of His kingdom. If we think that He is de- laying His answers to our prayers, we need to remember that He knows what is best for us and in cternity we may have cause for rejoicing because He answered our requests in a way that appeared good to Him. Jesus warned us of the dangerous pericds, when, notwithstanding His promises of protection and of power. men would be unfaithful and not con- tinue to earnestly contend for the faith. He warned us of the coming of a time of apodtasy and wretched sur- render to all that is antagonistic to one’s spiritugl life. In fact, Jesus raised the question as to whether He would find faith on the earth when the time came for Him to return. It s during such a trying and testing period that God's people are to “hold fast” by prayer and faith until He comes, tak- ing heed lest their “hearts become over~ charged with surfeiting, drunkenness and the cares of this life, and so that day come upon us” unawares. It will not find us unprepared for His return if we pray constantly and earnestly without ceasing in our efforts to keep our spiritual fellowship with God ways open and active. relse of Prayer. The pmm of the pharisee and the publican may not have been delivered at the same time as the parable con- cerning the importunate widow and the unjust judge. It is closely related to the message of prayer and suggests an- other phase of prayer. Both characters are drawn with the pen of a skilled artist so that they stand out clearly before ‘us. Both men went into the temple to pray. The ph Was con- ceited and felt his own importance. Five times we observe his reference to himself. “He congratulated himself that he was better than the rest.of men, and independent of grace; and the poor outcast publican.” This proud, self-righteous soul had a poise of self- satisfaction when he stood praying in the temple, which he left without knowing that God had condemned him, even though he had exercised the form of prayer, that shut out thoughts of God's grace and the needs of his (ellowmen .E:xnuelns prayer is a model for every er who approaches God with the desire to secure pardon and sal- vation. He knew that he was a sinner and that he needed the mercy of God to be saved. He went, like David of old, direct to Jehovah, the fountain- head of all mercy and salvation, cry- ing out, “God, be merciful to me, & sinner.” ‘The man who was thoroughly despised by his countrymen and humb- ly sought forgiveness, went out of the temple justified and saved, rather than the pharisee, “for every one nm exalteth himself shall be abased ai he that humbleth himself shall h exalted.” We are warned by this parable against the public exhibition of religion that falls to reveal the true type of Christianity. We know the type of worship that Jesus approves and should seek to make our religious exercise of prayer and worship in ac cordance with His model. In this chapter Moore has poini out that we find “exhibited the several traits of prayer; its perseverance by the widow, its humility the Wbllcln Iu receptivity by the children brought Jesus; its unselfishness by Peter, vho gave up all for Christ, in contrast with 50 | the rich young ruler who refused m do so; and the faith by the blind mr :ahabew: hz:-l:!ddl‘tvy Jerlch:“';d oul icou! our to have confidence in God's o to aid all who approach Him in the Master's name free from any comfl- dence in themselves.

The most fascinating portion of this square mile of old Prance is the lnclent Place d’Armes, upon which faces the Church of St. Louis. This is the principal church of the Archdiocese of New Or- leans and it is popularly known as the Old French Cathedral. It was built in 1772-74, at the ex- pense of two of the Spanish officials, on the condition that the holy sacri- fice should be offered there every Sat- urday in_ perpetuity for the repose of their souls.
