Peter and John in Gethsemane.
Lesson for April 18: Matthew
26:36-46; John 18:10-12.
Golden Text: Matthew 26:41.
Judas had already gone into
the night to betray his Lord when
Jesus and the remainng disciples
went from the upper room into
the garden of Gethsemane out-:
side Jerusalem. Leaving the most
of the disciples at the gate, Jesus, j
taking Peter, James and John,'
went farther intb the garden. But
the support he craved from the
chosen three was not given. While ;
he prayed in agony, as he faced
betrayal and death, the three fell
asleep. Thrice did Jesus come
and awaken them ere he said,
“Arise, let us be going.”
Perhaps every man comes at
some time to a bitter experience
in which he finds he is utterly
alone. So it was with our Lord
in Gethsemane. Even his chosen
disciples fell asleep while the soul
of the Master was tom with
agony.
Nothing is told of John except
that he slept while Peter and
James slept. But Peter, roused
from sleep and filled with shame,
drew a sword to defend his Lord
and with the first swing deprived
the high priest’s servant 'of an
ear. But Jesus healed the wound-
ed man, bade Peter put up his
sword, and gave himself to the
henchmen of the Sanhedrin and
the Roman soldiers.
How often have men made mat
ters worse by drawing the sword!
Let us even now be strengthened
in our faith in the gospel of love
that, when the terrible arbitra
ment of the sword which has been
forced upon us has brought de
liverance, we may give ourselves
anew to the building of the king
dom.
And let us never, while the
cause of our Master is in danger,
fall asleep, but, in the words used
as the Golden Text, “Watch and
pray." ‘ . *

• ‘Local War Bond solicitors were
“busy on the streets of McCormick
this week. There is not a person
,i being skipped in this tremendous
Undertaking of selling $50,000
worth of War Bonds in McCor-
Inlck County this month. There
ik not a person who will not need
the maturity value of these bonds
after the war Is over. Certainly
there is not a person so ungrate
ful and so unpatriotic as not to
responsibility
in this all-out effort to support
our boys. They give their lives—
we lend our money!
