The polstmastW general ha's di

the normal mail volume has teach-

“Thy kingdom come. Thy will
be done in earth, as it is in heav
en.” Matt. 6:10
The kingdom of heaven cab be
realized only in proportion ais
God’s children do his will. And
surely there is nothing of greater
importance in his sight than pub
lishing the gospel of the kingdom
to sli men. This prayer, “Thy
kingdom come. Thy will be done
in e^rth, as it id in heaven,’■ it
earnestly, prayed, will show that
it is our desire that God’s will be
done in our lives. Lot us not only
pray it, but let us live according
ly.
