' SCRIPTURE: Mark 141 M; Luke '“devotional READING: Matthew • n ri > Tii marr-v n i «*«■* Prayer in Pain Lesson ftt May 20. 1949 - .* . r. a...—;.». THE SHADOW over Gethsemane is deep. We tan scarcely see toe tortured figure under the moonlit olive trees. If Jesus' closest friends, In that , hour, were strangers to his soul, we ■RHRO cannot dare to pen- ■OH® etrate all the secrets of that fateful hour. Vet while we K|S - cannot know all, w e can know 'y£,. enough; enough to ■gwWSßg support us in our own time of dark- Dr_ Foreman ness and of pain. Mark uses very strong language to describe the state of Jesus' mind in Gethsemane. The two Greek words he uses, translated in the King James version “sore amated" and "very heavy," ere translated by the Revised Stanard Version "greatly distressed and troubled!” by Goodspeed, "distress and dread;'* by Moffatt, "appalled and agitated.” As our hymn says, "Wfc know hot how, We cadnot tell What pains He had to beat." Still, we do know of some of the burdens which weighed so terribly on Jesus' mind and heart that night i . « Power of Darkness ONE THING that must hgve troubled out Lord was lack of sympathy. Peter, James and John were comfortably asleep, evidently without the slightest notion of what be was suffering. But there was worse than lack of Sympathy, somewhere in the dark city one of Jesus' supposed friends, the man called Judas, was even then slinking through the alleys with murder in his heart. Jesus well knew what wu la store for him. He knew the Sanhedrin would cill him a blasphemer, he knew what the Romans would do with him. once they got their hands on him. Worse than this mttst have been the tragic sense of failure. "I would, but ye would not," he had said in tears to this very city! a city full of enemies who should have been his friends, of unbelievers who should have believed, a city he loved, but which had nothing for him but thorns and a cross. All this was on Jesus* heart that night—and as many Christians believe, far ijiore. One of the moit profound Christian thinkers has suggested that the heaviest, moit painful shadow on Jesus' white soul was the sense of guilt, hot his own but sot the sins of the world.

Blood and the Angel SO JESUS PRAYED. Eveft In the cool spring night hit forehead was covered with sweat, falling to the rocky ground like drippling blood. Never tow prayer from a more tortured heart. And what came of it? In one sense, the prayer was not answered. The dup did hot pass front him, he must drink it to the last bitter dregs, the prayer did not remove the pain. Yet in a deeper sense, the prayer of Christ was fully answered. "Net as 1 will, but as Thou wilt," he breathed. The prayer that seta one’s own will in line with the will of God, whatever His wiU may be, is the prayer that always finds answer. At the end, there was not release, but power. “An angel came and strengthened him." a a s What Prayer Can Do I ESUS LEARNED obedience by the things which be suffered." (Heb. 5:» > We can share his lessen. The hour of pain is not the hour to begin praying! those who have not learned prayer before, will scarcely know how to pray in a time of agony. Yet the time of pain is not the time to give up praying. When the dark hour comes. Jesus did not throw aside his faith, he prayed more intensely than ever before.
