“Another Find.”—Another wonderful “find” is noted by the sensational New York Journal. It tells us that papyrus, containing a prayer believed to have been composed, written, and signed by Jesus our Saviour, has been found by Dr. Bruesselbach, of Germany. But the reader need not go wild over the discovery. Our Lord wrote no such prayer nor any prayer. True prayer is talking with God in praise and supplication, pouring out, sometimes thinking out, the longings of the heart, the fulness of the soul. Jesus, the Son of God, wrote no prayers. He did not pray to men, and the Father did not need that the prayer should be written.
