The Traveler's Prayer General Superintendent Young

Our Heavenly Father, we seek Thy face before we take the road again today. This endless travel makes us feel like a religious vagabond. Save us from wither­ ing sell-pity, and keep our sense of mission vivid and keen. Make us constantly aware that our work must be done in Thy sight, and not for men. Be our protection on the crowded highways, and give us wise caution and a simple trust in Thy guiding hand. Save us from drunken drivers and from disastrous accidents. Lift us from the drudgery of the road by a fresh awareness of Thy presence. Even when the way seems lonely, give us songs in the night. Remember our loved ones as they carry on at home. Give to the mother of our home the needed patience and strength for her double duties. Save her Irom fretfulness and from corroding care. Reveal to her again the rewards of faithfulness in the hidden place of service. In our absence, protect our tender children and save them from the snares of evil. May they never taste the deep sins of earth. Show us how to make our life a beacon to guide their feet into wisdom’s path. Let Thy light shine through us to others today. Make us a true witness of Thy grace, and teach us how to turn chance encounters into timely oppor­ tunities to serve. Forbid that the annoying vexations of the road should make us restive or peevish. Give us the radiance of Thy love and the tranquillity of Thy peace. The problems that confront us, even the cutting words and strifes of men, are known to Thee. When those that we have trusted fail—even those in high places—let us lean hard on Thee, the source of all our strength. Some young and struggling Christians are looking to us today; may we not fail them or Thee. Save us from learfulness and dismay. Help us to make this day’s run with joy. When this particular journey shall end, bring us home again with a sense of mission accomplished. Then when life’s short day is done and all our wanderings are past, bring us to Thy everlasting home, where partings cease and where Thy presence is our everlasting joy. In His worthy name. Amen.

SEPTEMBER 7, 1960 • (667) 7 Pause Renews Faith Among N.P.H. Employees

A day of prayer in two minutes! It amounts to nearly eight hours—an average working day— when each of the more than 200 employees at the Nazarene Pub­ lishing House pauses daily at 9:00 a.m. lor two minutes of private devotions. Why? The assignment of your Pub­ lishing House is twofold: 1) It must supply the publi­ cation needs of the Church of the Nazarene in a businesslike man­ ner: and 2) It must not lose sight of the ultimate goal of the church—un­ broken contact with fesus Christ. To do this, the Publishing House must maintain a Christ- like attitude, and this can be brought about only by the per­ sons employed to serve the church. Hence, for ten years at nine o’clock every morning each type­ writer is stopped, every linotype machine that normally produces two feet of type an hour has Gwen Johnson, Port Huron, Michigan, who attended Olivet Nazarene College before being employed at the Nazarene Publishing House, pauses paused, and the thundering press­ over her work for devotions during the two-minute prayer time, a daily es that issue as many as 35,000 im­ feature at your Publishing House.
