"Pray without ceasing"

[Written Especially for Children]

RUTH R. WESLER

In the Bible we read, "Pray without ceasing." These words were written in a letter to a little group of early Christians at Thessalonica. The letter was from their friend and teacher, the Apostle Paul. Paul was a great and good man, who wanted to help and bless not only the Jews who were his own people, but the whole world. He taught the people about Jesus, who came into the world to prove the great love of God for man.

How glad these people must have been to hear from their teacher, to know that he had not forgotten them, but was rejoicing in their progress even in his absence, and patiently guiding them with wise and loving advice!

Now, anyone as good and wise as Paul would not be apt to ask others to do something which he had not proved for himself could be done. So let us see if it is not possible for us who read his words today to "pray without ceasing," which means, of course, all of the time.
