User-Contributed Transcription for you, dear sisters, but I have so many wandering thoughts in prayer often, that I am afraid God cannot hear me. I feel, at times, very much distressed because I co not feel that nearness to God, in prayer that I have felt, and because my thoughts are so often occupied with self, to the exclusion of worthier objects. O, Anna. pray God, that in his abundant mercy he will not suffer the many new and engrossing subjects that now crowd upon my attention, to wean my heart from him.-- there is much religious interest here, both in the school, and among Christians in the place generally. Some, we trust, are seeking Jesus. O, that many, that all, would seek and find him. God is doing much for us, as a people, now. How we ought to strive to serve him. Does it not seem strange to see in the daily papers
