Good News in the Garden of Gethsemane
Jesus prayed for you in the garden of Gethsemane
as well as praying for His faithful followers
who were sound asleep…
He prayed for you
He prayed for me
He prayed for us
that we would be one with one another
and one with the Father…
Our perfect priest
whose priesthood is permanent
is forever interceding for us
for peace, patience
and strength
so that when the trumpet sounds
we will have persevered.
He could’ve but couldn’t
walk away from the crucifixion
because He knew it was the only way
for me
and you
to fulfill our destiny.
He did
and
I am forever grateful
that
He did.
