Jesus' agony in the Garden on the night before his arrest is a story which is often told. I believe it gives us a good window in the prayer life of Jesus. Jesus doesn't want to go out this way, but is willing to to the Father's will. Luke 22 verse 44 begins "And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly..."How often is your first reaction to being in anguish, prayer? It is important that we recognize that God is with us even in the midst of things we
don't want to endure. At the time, we must be willing to submit fully to God's will even if it hurts.
