shelter blindness and unbelief and
sin and perplexity. Over the spirit
there steals sense Of confidence;
verify, the travail Of His soul shall
be satisfied
Once this hillside echoed to the
shouts OF the Roman soldiers and
the Jewish temple police, as they
exulted over the capture Of the Master.
Formerly, it had been jubilant with
the hosannas of the multitudes who
acclaimed Him as Conqueror. Amid
the shadows of these rocks the fright
ened disciples scurried for cover at
the hour when Jesus needed them
most. But above all else, the memory
recurs that this friendly hillside was
Christ's favorite place of prayer.
Here he met the Father, and here all
suffering spirits meet Him, in the
garden of fellowship. IN her earlier
years Ella Wheeler Wilcox saw this
clearly:
I'm golden youth, when seems the
earth
A summer land for singing mirth:
When souls are glad and hearts are
light,
And not a shadow turks in sight,
We do not know 1t, but there lies
Somewhere, veiled under evening skies,
A garden all must sometime see
Somewhere lies our Gethesemane,
With joyous steps we 60 our ways,
Love lends q halo to our days,
Light sorrows sail like clouds afar;
We laugh. and say how strong we are.
We hurry on, and hurrying. go
Close to the borderland of woe,
That waits for you and waits for me
Forever waits Gethsemane.
Down shadowy lanes, across strange
streams,
Bridged over by our broken dreams,
Behind the misty caps OF years.
Close to borderland OF woe tears.
The garden lies: strive as you may,
You cannot miss 1t in your way,
All paths that have been, or shall be.
Pass somewhere through Gethsemane.
"All those who journey, soon or late
Must pass within that gardens gate,
Must kneel alone in darkness there,
And battle with some fierce despair.
God pity those who cannot say,

Not mine, but Thine who ony pray.
Let this cup pass and cannot see
The purpose Of Gethsemane."
The Tragedy Of Time.
All time that has been and will be
focused its supreme tragedy upon this
gray hillside. Our lesson story itself
Is more important than any comment.
! quote the Weymouth Version:
SO they came to a place called
Gethsemane. There He said to His
disciples,
Sit down here till have prayed
Then He took with Him Peter and
James and John. and began to be full
OF terror and distress, and He said to
them:
My heart is oppressed with anguish
to the very point of death; wait here
and keep awake
Going forward short distance He
threw Himself upon His face and
prayed repeatedly that, il 1t was pos
sible. He might be spared this time
OF agony: and He said:
Abba! My Father! All things are
possible, for Thee; take this cup Of
suffering away from me; and yet not
what desire, but what Thou desirest >
Then He came and found them
asleep and He said to Peter,
Simon, are you asleep? Had you
not strength to keep awake . single
hour? Be wakefui all of you, and keep
on praying. that you may not come into
temptation: the spirit Is right willing,
but the body is frail.'
He again went away and prayed,
using the very same words. When He
returned He again found them asleep,
Tor they were very tired; and they
knew not how to answer Him. A
third time He came and then He said.
Sleep on and rest. Enough! The
hour has come. Even now they are
betraying the Son of Man into the
hands Of sinful men. Rouse YOUR
selves. let us be going: my betrayer is
close at hand
Immediately. while He was still
speaking. Judas, one of the Twelve
came and with him a crowd of men
armed with swords and cudgels, sent by
the High Priests and Scribes and Ed
ers. Now the betrayer had arranged
q signal with them.
The one kiss he said, is the
man: lay hold of him, and take Him
safely away"
Knowing the Great Hour.
A striking phrase from the Book
OF Chronicles describes the children
Of Issacher as men who had under
standing Of the times and knew what
Israel ought to do" They were not
asleep at their watchpost. To them,
their own day was portentious with
significance. They searched out the
deeper meanings Of things, even as the
wise are doing today.
Such as are not asleep. are in this
crisis hour entering into fresh UNDER
standing OF the worlds present Geth-
semane for the race; they hear the
call for vicariousness and self-renum-
citation; they perceive the divine phi
losophy Of Calvary; they catch the
glory of the all-solving spirit Of not
my will, but Thine. be DONE"
