Mark 9:2-4, 14-17, 25-29
Memory Seleccion: This is my
- beloved Son: hear Him. Mark 9:76.
•
It was a great privilege. for Peter,
James and Joie, to he with jeatla
in the holy mount when, He was
• transfigured hefore them. There
they beheld MOses the law -giver
and Elijah the great prophet speak-
ing with Jests concerning His
decease. Moses had died in a moun-
' Wu and was 3uried by God, (Duet.
31:0, and FFiab had gone heaven-
ward in a chariot of fire. (2 Kings -
2:11), But _Testis was greater than
either. The three disciples heard
Cod say as He had said at the
baptism of jt -i.. "This is my be-
loved Son." Only as we come to
fully acknowledge that Jesus Christ
is the Sou of t.iod. can we enter
into the Divine forgiveness and joy
that is Provided for ria.
But one cannot always stay In
tile mount of worship. We must
• come down to the plain and meet
the grim realities of life. When the
group came L1OV. n they were pres-
ented with a youth who could not
speak and who acted madly. Jesus
said to the father, ''If thou canst
believe, all things are possible to
him that believeth." What a chal-
lenge to his faith and to ours to-
day! Dare we accept it? The youth
was he:del Later the disciples
asked Jesus, "Why could not we
cast hitu outf" Jesus replied, "This
kind can. come .forth by nothing
but by prayer and fasting." The
implication is clear. The reason that
the church to -day is not casting out
more devils is that there is too
little prayer and fasting. There is
plenty of feasting but little fasting.
And how little earnest prayer!
Statesmen are baffled and frus-
trated. It will be on account of
God's praying people if we are pre-
served from the immediate devas-
tation of a world war. 0, let us
pray! God can overwhelm the evil
machinations of men and the blun-
derings of short-sighted statesmen.
If we pray, we can have faith. God
tan do the apparently impossible if
we will humble ourselves and pray
and turn from our wicked way.

Last week, if you remember, I
was wishing we could have just a
little more snow. We got it all
right . . , but it wasn't "just a

to much for me to attempt taking
the car out—although I noticed a
picture in the paper the other day
showing a little English car like
ours making its way gaily through
deep snow while bigger cars were
getting stuck. Just for fun I
would like to see what -our car
would do, In fact I would try it
if it were not for giving Partner

we are -alone but to have. visitors
