We have been accustomed to regard the pathetic resignation of the human will to the divine which Jesus expressed in the garden of Gethsemane, as a phase of thought most difficult to enter into, but upon giving the matter serious consideration, we find this, like many of our other preconceived ideas, to be entirely false concept of the prayer, that instead of being the most exacting, it is really the easiest and most natural petition to offer.

Testimony of Healing
After years of faithful research among the physical sciences and philosophies, and an extended study of both eastern and western religions, I came to the conclusion that there was undoubtedly a God somewhere; but since immutability could not be manifested through mutable phenomena, we could have no possible means of knowing or understanding Him, and I therefore abandoned my search.
