NARRATION:
After the Passover meal, Jesus took sanctuary in a garden on the Mount
of Olives, called Gethsemane. He had often come to this place to pray,
and, as He knelt beneath a canopy of trees, He felt deep anguish in His
spirit. As deep shadows began to fall, three times He prayed to His
Father, "Let this cup pass by Me." And three times He cried, "Thy will
be done." His heart was in despair, so God se
nt an angel who comforted
and ministered to Him.
By
His example, Jesus in the garden taught us to take refuge in the
sanctuary of prayer. It is in that chapel of hope and light that we are able
to find peace in the midst of life's challenges. It is in these quiet moments
of reflection that we may feel the winds of God's Spirit moving in our
midnight gardens, refreshing us with perfect grace.
