Prayer:
We can read a story of
the early pioneers in Minnesota. The grasshoppers had done much damage, and in 1877 the farmers were very concerned that all
the wheat could be destroyed. Governor John S. Pillsbury proclaimed April
26 as a day of prayer and fasting. All shops, schools, stores, and offices
were closed. The next day the temperature soared and the larvae of the
dreaded pest were seen everywhere. On the fourth day, the temperature
dropped, and frost came. The frost killed the locusts and the grateful farmers
remembered the day God answered the fasting and praying of the people.
