About thirty*three end one-Mltj years old 'V,- ■ ..y Oibcuustances. —We dosed ou> last lesson with those words of heavenly comfort and In struction which the beloved disciple has pre served for us in his Go5peL Closing with n prayer overflowing with tenderness and hope, and with a hymn sung by all, Jesus had com pleted His work as teacher, and there re mained only the steps to the cross, and the < atoning work thereon, by whioh alone His words could become the power of God for sal vation. LESSOR ROTES. -,'t A coarser infidelity has much to say about the shrinking of our Lordfrom death. Such weakness is pronounced unworthy, in contrast with many a martyr who has gone triumphantly to,' his cross; and many a hero to whom, death has been “welcome as the sig^t of<sky and stars to prisoned men. “It would suffice to answer that Jesus also failed not when the trial came, bnt before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession, and won upon the cross the adoration of a fellouNmffirer and the confession of a Roman soldier.” Courage is not stoical indifference nor insensibility to suffering. It is not, that physical prowess which disdains any expression of pain- “The stoic, to whom pain is no evil, and the Indian, laughing and singing at the stake, are' partly actors and partly perversions of humanity.” “Who is so hard-hearted as to think less of the valor of the mar tyrs because it was bought by many a lonely and intense conflict with the flesh?” True courage is of the soul, and is measured by the degree of sensi bility to pain, and by the full vision and consciousness of the evil to be en dured, together with the unflinching doing of one’sduty in the face of all. The most sensitive soul is often the bravest. A friend once called the attention of iVapoleon to the blanched face of an officer as he was marching into battle, as showing that ho was a coward. Na poleon replied that that man was the bravest officer in his army; for he saw clearly and felt keenly his danger, and yet«went forward into the thickest of the battle. Into this one hour were crowded by prevision the combined horrors of the passion, its cruelty, its shame, Its1 physical torment, its spiritual tortures. He felt with the greatest intensity the sin of the world. The wickedness of Judas, the weakness of even His chosen ones, the best on earth, the crimes of Jewish leaders soon to be wrought against Himself, their measureless folly in rejecting their Messiah, their only hope, the terrible evils soon to come upon t&e whole nation, brought before His soul the most awful results of sin upon the human race; It was the un speakable horror of a world thiwisj away Heaven and hope, and trampling on the most radiant manifestation of love God Himself could make to them. It was the mother heart burdened with the sin and ingrat itude of her son who unites her for her efforts to save him. The Answer to jurist's Prayer—V 42; Luke 23:43. There were three US' ‘ severs to the prayer of Jesu3. First, the angel strengthening bim (Luke) was a direct answer. There aro two ways of answering a prayer for .the removal of a burden. In one the burden is taken away, and we remain the same; in the other we aro made so strong that the burden is no longer a burden to us; as what would crush a child is but sport to a man. Paul kept the thorn in his flesh, but God's grace was made sufficient, for. him. Jesus going on to the cross (v. 42) shows tflat the answer was given, Aenond, He had most intimate oom with God. By His trouble and He came close to His Heaven _jther. The third answer to prayer is the ving, not that which, we ask for in e form we ask it, but the soul of our ayer, the thing we in our deepest sorts want, and would ask for if we w all things as God sees them. X* early before the vision of Jesus there id appeared two choices, the one of cape from the cross, but with that bo the failure of His mission, the Lumph of evil, the loss of unnumbered uls, no crown, no glory, no abiding l the right.hand of God; and the other toice, that of the crass and its agony, it with it also the redemption of the orld, the ineffable glory of God, the ys of millions of the saved, the crown triumph over evil—who doubts bich would have been His real, inner ost prayer. His prayer was answered, r the cross was changed to a crown,4 sthsemane into paradise, death into unortal glory. LESSORS FROM GETHSEMARB. Every life has its Gethsemanes of sor >w, and may have its victories. Alone, that worn-out word— it all the. poets sins, and grief hath known I hopes laid waste, bnellsln that word, Alone. v —Bulwer. “Be sure it is something more than irface feeling, something more than ipulsc; it is good, honest, sober, con deratc, patient principle, stayed up j prayer, that alone can remain awake, id out watch the sfera, and wait trough the darkness, .and conquer anptation.”—F. D. Huntington. „ The best people find the least fault ith their brethren, and are the most ;ady to find excuses for the failures of hers. __ Prayer is not conquering God’s re .ctance, but taking hold of God’s will gness.—Phillips Brooks. There is no sin in shrinking from hat is painful, save when the skrink ig is so violent that it resists the dear ill of our Father.—Gumming. God’s will is always infinitely better >r us than our own. “God always an vers in kind or in kindness.” Reception invitations should be os cards instead of paper. .
