To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Peter knows the difficulties about which he " Mr. Phillips Brooks' " Lectures on Preaching, " p. I iS. B 2 4 The Grace of Courage. writes : and he knows also the powers of recovery and of conquest. And surely we feel the presence of this knowledge in his heart as in the words of the text he teaches us how to deal with the threats and fears of this world, — teaches us the great secret of courage. " Be not afraid, " he says, "with their fear :" do not be frightened by the things that frighten tho...se who live only for this world, the things with which this world would scare you ; " neither be troubled : but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord. " Surely as he so wrote he must have been recalling to himself some thought of that stormy night of misery and terror when the fears of this world came about him, and he failed. It had seemed impossible to him : impossible that even the masterful violence of death itself could wrench his will from its allegiance and devotion : he was forewarned, forearmed : he knew that the trial was coming, and knew who was assailing him, Who had prayed for him : all that forethought and reason and love could do for him was done : all that could brace and steady a man to bear a trial had been granted to him : — and then it all seemed driven away like smoke, scattered and overwhelmed as dreams are by the reality of day, when the threat- enings of the world began to come on him, as the maid-servant recognised him by the firelight : the show of courage tottered and fell at the first touch of terror : he was friorhtened.
