[Rev. Carl M. Truesdale, in the Burlington (Wisconsin) Free Press]

That which is needful to full Christian living will be given to us if we ask. Health and strength equal to the tasks that come; forgiveness of our own sins and the will and power to forgive others as well as the will and the power to serve them; humility to know that we are His and that all we have is from Him, a trust; wisdom to use that trust rightly and well, sight to see beyond pettiness and failings and find the real value of neighbors; courage and faith to fulfill our tasks; and the certainty of God's love for all.

In a world that has been too busy to pray, men have forgotten that there is a way to set things right, that the power of prayer is beyond measure, and that the ear of the creator is never closed to the cry of those who petition in the name of His Christ.
