REQUESTS FOR PRAYER.

“SINCE I see so many requests for prayer for loved ones, and knowing that the prayers of the righteous avail much, I beg of you to remember a dear sister-in-law of mine, who has tuberculosis, that she may be restored, or if the loving Hand that formed her does not see fit to restore her to life and health, that she may be perfectly satisfied. She began some time ago to give herself to the Lord, but the suffering is so great at times that she seems almost to forget that Jesus is her Friend. She has requested that I ask the prayers of the sisters for her in her affliction.”
“Dear sisters of the Woman’s Gospel Work, I ask your prayers for my husband, who has been sick for the last six months. His only trouble now seems to be with his mind. Pray for its restoration.”
Pray for an unconverted husband for whom a sister has been praying and hoping for twelve years. She says: “I will not give him up. I must believe God when he says, ‘What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.’ I may not believe as I ought, but I will lay it anew before the Lord. Oh, I must be answered. I have waited so long—twelve years.”
