Man's truo prnyor tho prayer which is true for him is ttio expression in words of tho trend of his life. Man's effectual prayer is that petition which has in vlow nnd embraces the will of God. In all obediences to God and to righteousness, man is, ns he should uni versally and continuously be, co-oper- nting with God for tho establishment of Ills kingdom on earth and for tho blessing of mankind. In all sinning nnd fnlluro to obey ho is resisting tho will of God and limiting the blessed ncss of men. Tho truo human attitudo in prayer is that of Chiist in Ills hour of great distress. "If this cup may not pass from mo except I drink it, thy will bo done," Importunity in prayer which has in 'view tho accomplishment of the will of tho petitioner nnd tho bending of tho will of God to our wills is an impertinence. Rather it is tho po titioner's placo to seek to know nnd to como into harmony with tho will of God. Tho vnrlous objects of prayer, personal, social, general nnd world' wide, should bo subordinated to tho One desire that tho kingdom of God may como and His will bo dono in earth as it is in heaven. That which best for mnnkind ns n whole is real- Jy best for each individual. Tho prayor which is selfish is prayer agniust tho truo interests of self and ngalnst tho interests of mnnkind.
