PETER
By"PEG"
an spite of all the .tragedy of hi
life, Peter is one of the most re
epeeted of the disciples of our Savi.
our. Why is he so regarded?
Per
Imps the . answer witieh us neares
correct to that question is that each
one of us is so much like him. We
are prone, the greater part of the
time, to follow afar off the Saviour
who died four us.
We never enter the Lenten Season
but our mind travels to the eulmin-
ation of that period of time, the
death and the resurrection, of our
Lord Jesus O'hrist. The tragedies of
those days have at no time been sur
passed in the :history of the world,
nor wail iihey be.
At that time the most famous trial
te
tin history took place. It is true no
a -days a p1•isoner can appeal to . a
higher count but Christ atood before
an unjrst judge, one who was afraid
rte do what he knew an Itis :heart to be
right. The result of that trial was.
that Jesus Ohriat, the Saviour of the
world, died for us that we might
enjoy Eternal life with Him.
s spired to white the gospels which
are such a help to us to -day, Be
- tweet Jesus and John .there was a
- mutual bond of friendship. Judas
t who +betrayed His Master was one
chosen, and Peter was noted for his
impulsiveness.
There are so many of the charact-
eristiue of Peter that belong to each
one of us that it is well for us to
study him and in that way ;try to
improve our own lives.
In a • previous taak with Jesus Pet-
er had declared bus fidelity which
he claimed was never failing. He
even 'went the length of saying that
he. would lay down his life for his
Lord, yet when the time came for
hien to even enknowledge his ac-
quaintance with Him he denied that
he ever had known HIm.
We gather from our reading of
God's word that bad it not been for
John, the beloved disciple, p e, that Pet-
er would not have been allowed in
the court at all. John had influence
with some one in the court and used
that power to. have Peter also admitt-
ed, They went in 'together and
Jahn feeling that Peter would follow
him went om into the ismer court in'
order that he might be near the One
whore he loved during the court pro-
ceedings. Peter went so far and
stayed behind. He was afraid of the
cold•air and joined those who had
gathered around the fire in the outer
court and there hie downfall began.
He had gone with Jesus to the
In order that the worse of our Sav-
iour could be carried on after He
passed away, Jesus chose twelve
iseiples to follow on after His Work
here was completed. Among those
twelve was the hero, and the word
:really :applies to him, of our article.
It is indeed sad that so many to-
day have any real knowledge of our
:Lord nor of any of His disciples..

The March meeting of the W,A.,
was held at the home of 'Mrs. Ira
Merrill. The president, Mrs. Bert
Lobb, was in the chair, and the meet-
ing opened by singing the hymn
"Sweet Hour of Prayer." This was
followed by the Lord's Prayer in uni-
son after which the roll was called
with 11 member's present. The mie-
utes were read and adopted.
A missionary reading end prayer
were given by Mrs. P. Jones, and
the scripture lesson was ;read by Mrs.
A. Hebden. "The Commands of
Christ" from the Hymnal were given
by Mrs: Bert Lobb and the response
was given by die Members. This was
followed by prayer by the president.
The meeting was closed with a
hymn and the btizpah Benediction.
"it's. A. FIebden conducted an inter-
esting contest and a delii:nue lunch
was served by the 'hostess,
place where he might have been of
some use to Him and then had stopp-
ed. Why? because he felt the cold.
Jesus in looking around might have
met his sympathetic gaze. but he
was not there. What a tragedy both
for Peter and the Saviour who loved
him.t
J0 hn was there but beyond
b Y and
that we do •not know of any others of
the disciples.
Peter there missed a great bless-
ing. How often we miss that same
blessing and at times for something
just as trivial as the excuse Peter
gave, therefore we have no right
to
judge Peter. For instance how often
have we stayed away from the house
of God because of the cold. That
same chilliness would .not have kept
us away from the theatre, the dance
hall or the movies, we are often re-
lieved that Peter was one of the
chosen twelve for like ourselves he
was always hurrying hither and yon
and quite often like you 'end me he
was never getting anywhere. 'When
we think of the way he rushed around
we can .hardly imagine him sitting
iuietly by the fire listening to the
gossip of the crowd while his Master
was on trial for his life nob for Him-
self, bat for Peter and for you and
me.
We sometimes wonder what ht
real reason for sitting tgthere was
Could it have been tear? That
characteristic was almost foreign to
Peter.
One noted instance of , that was
whe•( he tried ,o walk on the water
to meet Jesus but his •faith fainbd
h:nt, fear was i•:s lot and as be be-
gan to sink he called on his Lord for
help, 'which was of coarse granted
him. So we hurry into things with-
out proper preparation neglecting to
ask God to be our Companion, not
realizing that without Isis help we
would sink in son.
Then too there is the thought that
He may have had implicit confidence
that Jesus was the Savioee of the
world and that therefore He did not
need any help from him. We can-
not judge him fee we do not !mow
what his thoughts were but we have
reason to feel et/OH: nt that if he
had gone with John into the inner
court that he would not have denied
His Lord.
Peter was silent when he should
have been speaking for Juts Christ.
He was abiding with the enemy and
as sure as we do that we will not
have the courage to speak for Him
who did everything for us. No matt-
er what, the consequences may be to
its we should always be ready to let
it be known that we are oat the side
of Jesus Christ. In our daily walk
in life we come in contact with those
who do not know the Lord and we
should always consider it a great pri-
vilege to telt of His love and what He
has done for us. Often we, oturselves
are following so far off that we have
no message to give and at times
something has gone wrong with the
line of oamnnunication between us
and our Saviour and we cannot hear
what He is saying ho us.
Many peepie have known Jesus
and have drifted away, from Hint.
What a pity! Peter denied his Lerd
