B. B. SUTCLIFFE Assistant Superinteadent of Men, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago TEXT He saw them toiling and rowing for the wind was contrary to them. Mark Jesus had risen to the highest point of his popularity when the people were ready to make him their king. It may have looked to the disciples that the time had come when they would be installed in prominent places in his kingdom.

From this place of popularity and seeming success they were sent back into the familiar and the common-place. Storm and Toil. The Master knew the storm was coming when he sent them out upon that lake to cross to the other side. It may have looked like fair weather to them. There may have been no hint from the air or sky of the coming storm.

But all the time he knew what they were going to meet out there upon the water. And he knows our way. lie is acquainted with every step that lies before us. We have met no storm- that has not first blown past him and we may boldly say with the Psalmist of old, "My times are in Thy hands." We can hear him say as we see the storm-clouds gathering, "As thy day so shall thy strength be." Had these disciples known it the presence of the storm was no sign they were out of his place, and this is as true for us. But the storm was there and he had sent them into it with its consequent toil.

Place of Danger. The difficulty and danger of their place was not because of the toil. They were doing what they were accustomed to do for they were fishermen on that lake. Neither did their difficulty and danger come from the storm. From their long acquaintance with that lake they would be familiar with storms.

But their danger arose because of their loyalty to the Master's command. He had told them to go to the other side, knowing that if they went, they would go against wind and wave. They may not have made much progress against the storm, but at least they were headed right in the path pf obedience. It is in this path of obedience that the Christian meets the difficulties. He finds he must sometimes go against the storm of public opinion, the1 wind that rises in the business wrorld sometimes blows contrary to him, and even in his home he may meet difficulties if he obeys the Lord.

It is comparatively easy to run with the storm; it is difficult to row against it. As someone has said, "any dead fish can go down the stream, only a live one can move against the current." Place of Safety. Their safety came not because of seamanship. They were going not only contrary to the wind, but contrary to their knowledge of how to handle the boat in such a time of stress. Had they exercised their seamanship they would have turned about and run before the storm, but because the Master had said to go forward, their loyalty to his command forbade them seeking safety in disobedience.

However, they were still in the place of safety in spite of their seeming recklessness. Neither were they safe because of the seaworthiness of their boat. However good the boat may have been, they were doing the 'very thing that their experience told them would swamp it. But we are told in verse 48 that the Master was watching them. He could measure the weight of every wave and the force of every blast of wind.

He would know just the moment to say "Peace, be still," to both wind and waves. It is not what we see and know, but what he sees and knows. He who notes the sparrow's fall and counts the hairs of our head will never place us where the waves are too mighty or the wind too strong. He knows what lies before us. He often sends us into the place of toil and storm the place of difficulty and danger but he is always watching, and because of his watchfulness, our place, however dangerous, is the place, of perfect safety.

Place of Satisfaction. Finally he comes to them walking upon the sea and moving against the contrary wind. He passes through the wind that was so difficult to them with perfect ease. The storm raged about him as it did about them, but he was superior to it all. The measure of our obedience to him be the measure of our superiority to every storm, our calmness in every danger, and our safety in every difficulty.

If this should meet the eye of one of God's tempted ones In the midst of stress and storm, -let him know that in the midst of the darkness he is alongside, walking with them against the contrary wind and saying, "Be of good cheer, it is be not afraid." Born of God, attach thyself to him, as a plant to its root, that ye may not be withered. Hemophilus. Poor Form. Percy "I'd sooner go without the money than borrow from such a bounder as Smith. Why, every time I ask him for a loan he says he's broke, and convinces me that he is." Mop Cloths.

It Is light in weight, porous, readily picks up the dust, Is easily wrung out, easily cleaned and dries so quickly there is small danger of ever having a "sour" mop.
