LOVERS

Writing about sex, DR.. William ].
Robinson comments that the ideal re-

real harmoney of tastes, desires and
ambitions-to be friends as well as
lovers.
But people who fall in love are so
rarely alike that there's an old saying
about the advisability of marrying
ones opposite. This is not true men

he would make good. When Paul
planned for their second missionary
journey Barnabas insisted that Mark
be taken with them. Paul refused
and ~ae loyalty of the great-hearted
Barnabas to Mark is shown by his
taking his cousin with him. when the
separation took place between Paul
and himself over Mark. Paul feared
that he could not be depended upon in
a crisis. Under the leadership Of
Barnabas, Mark made good He
brought comfort and cheer TO the
one who had loved and befriended
incurred by his efforts to secure for
Mark a chance to make good. Mark
never failed Barnabas Through the
grace of the Lord Jesus he fought
and won his battle where he had
failed.
One day there reached him a call
from Peter, who wished Mark to be
come his secretary and helper. Bar
nabas probably urged him to go. as
he recognized his peculiar qualifica-
tions for the service that the door of
opportunity had opened for his assist
ant. Mark did not realize the meaning
of the call when he responded to ST.
mon Peters request for his assist
and compa nionship with Peter would
be priced by Mark. A greater priv
ilege was opened to him, for he re
ceived from Peter the gospel that
Of Jesus, which was probably the first
published. Mark found himself at last
He saw that Jesus had been minis
ter to all mankind. He was aroused
by the Lords life, love and labor to
follow Jesus in all things.
He heard Jesus calling him to the
stricken Paul. as we hear our Lord
calling upon us today to aid su1ering
Japan. Mark recognized in Paul's
Imprisonment and danger an oppor-
tunity to serve Christ and prove the
reality of his reformation. Paul well
coined his services. He saw that Mark
had come up to his rigid standards
and he rejoiaed in his ministering.
When Mark was absent Paul re-
quested Timothy to pick him up
and bring him with thee; for he is
profitable unto me for the ministry"
He had won his place as Paul's fellow
laborer in the kingdom of Christ.
The man who had failed had, through
Gods grace, come back. He had
learned the source of his cowardice
and unsteadiness and the way to con-
uuer his errors through the Masters
help. Mark found himself when he
gained mastery over himself. 1t
helped him to overcome the world and
to serve his Lord in fellowship with
Barnabas, Peter and Paul, even after
he had failed. The glory of Christs
gospel is found in the fact that Jesus
has a place for all who have Jailed.
