"In Everything."

"In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." "In everything!" All of us are ready to make known our requests unto God in some things; but who does in everything? We ask for forgiveness; we ask for strength against temptation; we ask for help in correcting our faults; we even ask for health and safety, and for wisdom in teaching and in daily duty-doing; but do we ask, in the same confidence, for help in securing a servant, in buying clothing, in finding a summer home, in selecting wall-paper for a bed-room, in arranging a bouquet, in playing a game with the children, in bearing ourselves wisely in an evening call? "In everything," is the Bible injunction. What isn't included in it?—Sel.
