"D.cr and over it comes to me,
Tn thought of Christ on the stormy
sea.
The weary worker holds our imag-
i~nItion more than the raging
waves. Worn out with spending His
souls subsistence for other people.
Jesus WAS lying in the stern Of a
Galil.an fishing boat asleep. He was
tired with just the same sort OF
tiredneSs hat comes to this worlds
tired toilers who have spent them
selves to the limit. The 20 OF Man
was akin to all His brethren in all
their experiences. The world would
not willingly lose this picture OF the
weary Christ, sleeping in sheer ex-
haustion.
Modern "prophets,' who profess to
~monopOlize the mind of the Galilean

in private cars. but this was no priv
ate yacht in which Jesus sailed. In
stead, it was just an ordinary, clumsy,
odorous fishing boat, with the scales
Of yesterdays catch smeared over the
thWarts. 1t had no cabin, but under
the overcast sky on a simple pallet
lay the great Teacher, needless OF the
hobbing Of the boat or the shrieki1g
of the wind or the pounding OF the
waves. 1t was such a storm as sweeps
down from the hills OF the eastern
shore of Galilee; or as makes sailing
on Lake George hazardous. 1t does
not take a great ocean to make a
dangerous storm. The little craft was
in as much danger on Galilee as if
Il had been in the middle of the At
'tntic.

Just as the apostle Paul dominated
his shipwreck scene. so it was, in
an incOmparably higher degree, with
Jesus. He was a master OF men n

had no thought that He would still

refuge In the shelter of His strong

faith that Christ always exceeds ex-
pectations. They who ask for lit

The afTrighted Galileans were still
