SUPPLICATION (A CASE STUDY OF FORMS IN WOOD CARVING)

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

Right now it is clear that no man’s effort has been able to remedy the problem of mankind, even so it has been back in the history. Notiching this trend, some people seeking refuge in the world of God and strong enough in faith. They Love to be rich more than God and so become like the seed that falt among thorns and were choked. These people established churches and prayer house here and there, instead of teaching people the truth about Life, take to enriching them selves and preaching about prosperity. And so the problem of man kind remains unsolved even by prayers. How can God answer the prayer of the ungodly. With the view that man is a failure in his effort to question still remains what shall be done to quench this fire that is devouring mankind.

      With this, the story of the prodigal son comes to mind.The prodigal son wanted his own share of his father’s property or wealth, when this was given to him, he went and misused it when he was hungry stickmen, disease prone and dejected just as to compare with the Situation of the world of man today. The prodigal son remembered his fatter with humble heart and this he did and was accepted and taking care of by the wealthy father, so if the world is compared to the prodigal son, it then means that the solution to the problem lies in the Lord

Their God, and for them to come to God it has to be in total surrender in supplication because God never look down on a Lowly heart.

     Supplication as the advance Learners dictionary has it means humble prayer. This humility is not the type that a hypocrites, can do but the type a determined individual who knows that he is in a problem and wants to be saved from his problem can do. Self denial to have a complete love   for a fellow man and total devotion to the Biblical viewing him solve them. And my own is based on Biblical believe.
