Gethsemane
by
Barbara Philbrook
Gethsemane
is where Jesus begged God if it could possibly be,
Please Father let this cup pass from me.
Knowing
the inevitable can give us cause for great grief,
where intercession from our Lord is our only relief.
We may
most certainly seek to have our cup pass us by,
just as Jesus in Gethsemane did try.
But just
as our Savior did on that night,
we must add "never the less, Father we know your
will is right".
We may not
be thrilled at the aspect of what we must bear,
but we are assured God's Grace is sufficient to get us
through there.
To trust
and obey, that is the only way,
to bring Honor and Glory to the Father this day.
Heavenly
Father please pour your strength into me,
that those bearing witness may your true Glory see.
May any
need of others that I may face,
be filled Dear Father by your Precious Grace.
May all
that I need to be and all that I must do,
be sufficient Dear Father to turn all eyes toward you.
