The Protecting Power of Truth

BY MARIETTA T. WEBB.

One Sunday morning a year ago last August, while seated in church, and my head bowed in silent prayer, I had a presentiment of my home being in danger of fire. I took in the situation in a second; we had not had any rain since the early spring, and the excessive heat of the summer had made everything very dry.

For a moment I thought what a terrible loss it would be if such were the case. Then fear began to creep upon me, when suddenly I was confronted with Truth, which said, "I am applicable not only in the treatment of diseases, but in all the difficulties and trying places of life."

I at once began to demonstrate the Truth. Sweet peace stole over me, and when the silent prayer was ended, and we were repeating the Lord's Prayer with the spiritual interpretation, I forgot my presentiment for the time being.
