The Human Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane
$10.20 Quick ViewThe Human Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane
This past April 14, 2016, Nita Raye and I celebrated our fiftieth wedding anniversary surrounded by our children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, plus many good friends. The joy was overwhelming. The reflection on all those memories brought tears of rejoicing to our eyes, and we thanked and praised God for His many blessings. Jesus was and is God, but for a time and a purpose, he put on the cloak of humanity and wept like we do for the suffering of others and finally for his own impending trail and anguish. Jesus, as God, knew what was coming and had prepared himself for it from the foundation of the world. He was ready to rescue all humanity from Satan's lair. Jesus, the human son of man, had to overcome his humanity in his garden of Gethsemane before He could accomplish His godly task on Earth. All of us have events in our lives that spiritually we have prepared for, yet when the trial presents itself, we try to avoid it. Jesus prayed three times at an hour each time to have this horrific event taken from Him instead of having to go through it. Yet in the end He accepts it for you and me and for the joy beyond. Today, we rejoice in God for his trustworthiness with family, friends, and our two little helpers, Mr. Cooper and Miss Molly. Blessings to all Cooper and Molly had a question for God: I asked my Creator why he had make me thus, I must look to my master for food and shelter and such. He smiled and said, "I did it so you could teach my man that all he receives in this life and beyond comes not from his work or wisdom but are gifts of love from His master's hand."
