Transcript

The mutual broadcasting system in cooperation with Family Theater Incorporated presents Little Boy Blue, starring Robert Walker and Jean Crane. William Gargon is your host. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.

You know if you stood on any street corner and asked a dozen people what they want most in life, you'd get a variety of answers. But a lot of them would add up to something like, brother give me a million bucks and Now be satisfied.

Yes, some people have got to figure it out. They have got to figure that a million bucks will buy a new kind of home life, security, and happiness. But here is something, a sure way to that new home life, that security, that happiness.

Ever think about all the things you can do and have with God's help, with the help of prayer? You'll never know what prayer can do until you've tried praying, sincerely, earnestly, putting your whole heart and soul into prayer. You'll never know what family prayer will mean in your home until you've tried praying together as a family. Maybe a million bucks

will buy happiness and security. Maybe it will. But there's no doubt about the peace and joy, the security and happiness that comes into a home with the daily practice of family prayer. Every prayer means God is there in your home.

That's lasting security. That's real happiness. William Gargon will be back following tonight's Family Theater Story, Little Boy Blue, starring Gene Crane and Robert Walker. He wrote these words.

God in his providence obscures the goal beyond this veil of sorrow and smiles of men and pity when they seek to penetrate the Marl with faith that all is for the best. It's bare what burdens are presented that we shall say let come what may we die as we have lived, contented.
