Jesus maintained perfect equili-
brium between the objective and sub
tective life. He was no recluse, seeking
a cell or a cave. Monastlelsm finds no
justification in his example. His life
was one of unsurpassed industry. He
poured himself out In the loving and
helpful service OF others. He had
triple profession: Teacher, Physician,
Preacher. He piled them all with such
zeal that his mother and brothers fear
ed he would consume himself. The SEN
timental religious idler is rebuked by
the Master whom he may profess to
follow. Yet Jesus knew how to go into
the silence" He chose. sometimes, to
be alone. He "saluted himself" and
saw what his soul did mar'-to use
George Harbert's quaint phrase. He
communed with his Father in secret. In
this residence from objective industries
he. humanity speaking, got the poise and
strength to continue those industries in
an astonishing manner 1t was to OBJ
tain such a season after day of mir
acles in word and deed that he dismiss
ed his disciples and afterward the
twlce-fed multitude. This done, "he
went up the hill by himself to pray and
when evening fell, he was there alone"
What delightful, recreative COMMUNION
he had with the divine within him is
for us to imagine. not to know. Prox-
unity of disciples or others would have
marred 1t, If not made 1t impossible.
The rewards of that secret fellowship
were afterwards openly apparent.
The scene following is an acted parable.
Jesus Is stu sending his disciples into
storms. In his .omnlscience he knows
what is in store for them, but still
urges them forward. He also watches
to see how they will deport themselves
in the stress. It is said "he saw them
tolllng in rowing" He delayed his com
ing until three hours after midnight.
Their nautical skill, their strength,
courage, and faith were tested to the
| uttermost. When every human re-
source was exhaustpl, then only Jesus
came to them. 49,, But even then
they were frightened at the form and
manner in which their Deliverer came.
Not until he spoke to them in his famIl-
lar voice were their fears allayed.
Courage" he said; "a! is I. Do not be
afraid $500. The incident of Peter
is the parable in the parable. In his i'm
F! petuosity he cried, Master, since 1t is
you, tell me to come to you on the wa

of the old self and environment. 1t is as
