REQUESTS FOR PRAYER

PRAY for my husband, who I fear is going insane. Satan is working diligently to make his life one of misery, by an unbalanced mind. Please make no delay; my husband must be saved, and the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much.
A sister who lives one hundred and fifty miles from any others of like faith, writes: “I ask that my husband may be remembered at the noontide hour of prayer. He has never made any profession. He reads our books and publications, but he never expresses his opinion. But I am sure he believes the truth. I am trying to bring up my four boys in the way they should go. Pray for me, that I may not bring a reproach upon the cause, and that the time may soon come when my husband will be with me in the truth.”
“I am almost in despair about our family. We were once quite happy, but Satan seems determined to destroy our happiness here and make us lose our souls. My health is poor, and also my husband’s. We are both very impatient, and are not entirely united in the government of the children. My husband was brought up to use the rod, and is very exacting and faultfinding, and whips when he is angry. I have done wrong in interfering; but I ask prayer that he may be more gentle with the children, and correct with pity and love, as our Heavenly Father deals with us; and also that I may be more patient with my husband, and do my duty as a wife and mother. I have read the requests and answers to prayer, and have been impressed from time to time to ask an interest in prayer for my family.”
