re of my
heart, for which I was praying almost unceasingly. _On the evening of
the same day_ on which I supposed you would receive my request, _the
answer came,_ lifting a great burden from my heart. I send this in
acknowledgment of God's loving-kindness to me, and to encourage' every
burdened, praying one, to _trust Him more_."

A POOR OLD SICK LADY RESTORED.

"The poor, sick old lady for whom I requested your prayers some time
since, wishes to return thanks to Almighty God, for _restoring her
health_, and _sending friends_. It is wonderful how your and our

to Jesus."

A CHURCH SAVED FROM STRIFE.

"It is with heartfelt gratitude to God that I write you of answer to
your prayer. Last Spring, I asked your prayers in behalf of our church.

but feel that I may. I prayed God not to heal my body wholly, until I
was more patient under my cross."

"Sometime ago I wrote to you for my husband. He was _a victim to strong
drink_ at that time, but _blessed be God, he has not drank one drop for
five months_."

SPIRITUAL STRENGTH.

"I feel your prayers; I think I know the day and the hour, for I felt
strengthened with strength in my soul."

HEALING OF SOUL AND BODY.

"I have reason to rejoice that I have been greatly blessed in answer to
