Ry DOROTHY KILBLRN lowering above the desert near an Indian village was very higli mountain It was the goal of every lndian lad to scale its heights lhe hief appointed day when all the boys were to attempt to reach the summit They 33 started out bravely with the iels words ringing in their ears tome back when you are tired but bring twig from the height that you have reached Soon fat little lad turned back with leaf of cactus which he had plucked from the foot of the mountain The second boy retumed with twig of sagebrush later another came with cot tonwood spray another with cedar boiigli each showing Points to ponder Prayer indispensible the height that he had reach ed Near the end of the day tall youth returned empty handed but with radiant joy on his face Father there were no twigs at the top but Isaw the shining seas The Chiefs eyes glowed know that yoii had scaled the heights It is written in your face it sings in your voice You have felt the uplift you have seen the glory If we hristians would have shining faces and singing voites we nitist climb the mountain of prayer Prayer is indispensible to the hristian if he is to be vital If he neglects it and re mains on the level of con tinual creature fellowship his life will yidd little fruit for God The prayer habit dominated the life of Jesus Christ He arose while it was yet dark and went into the mountains to pray John Wesley refused person membeiship in his church it he did not spend three hours day in prayer ig Prayer is the time in which we sight our telescopes upon the day with all its duties arid bring them into foctis with the will of lod for our lives If we fail in prayer we will fail during the day but if we keep our trust with the King of Kings and scale the moon tain of prayer we too will see thegloryot iod in our tycs And when He had sent them away He departed into mountain to pray Mark IiiIii 43 Guaranteed annual income desirable social goal CALGARY Alta ice anadas poor are concerned
