prediction was ful filled but at the time or this incident the disciples had not learned the sec ret the question is frequently ask ed why have we not christ s healing power it is beside the mark to an swer that the medical profession car ries on the work of the great healer christ gave a demonstration of the power of mind over body which his followers ought to be able to exercise in a greater degree than they now do being made through a study of the laws of the mind the power of faith reaction to suggestion and the working of the human will the mental and spiritual powers which we possess

the majority of cases prayer is earn through trouble often we pray much more earnestly facing some a cute issue affecting ourselves than we do for others in sorrow or difficulty a very great scholar prayed all night for his boy whose life was hanging in the balance after an operation in a hospital his prayer was born out of love to his boy and need of help rath er than from a reasoned faith in prayer the father of the epileptic boy told jesus about the suffering of his lad and then with an outburst of tears said if thou canst do anything have compassion on us and help us prayer becomes real when it expres ses the souls sincere desire prayer that is an art form or rhetoric or scripture quotation may be beautiful but effectual prayer is a matter of sincere and earnest desire our real prayer is what in our heart of hearts we are constantly desiring this is what is controlling our action more than the words we say when we say our prayers answers to prayers jie come possible when we

given point they beuere at cer tain times and at other times are torn by grievous doubts yet our be lief if we analyse it is based on ex perience that justifies our faith we wonder why we ever doubt when qod s love has been demonstrated so repeatedly the secret of christs healing power was his unlimited faith in god christs life breathes faith not doubt faith m action sse christ s faith was not a mood or ft pose it was a basis for action he healed the sick boy amotion was never an end in itself with christ h was a spur to redemptive action the diwrtphw asked why they could not heal the boy wj christ told that they lacked prayer and discip line the oolden text states all things are possmle to him that ueretb xs this the secret of our weakness is it the explanation of the relative impotence
