Not My Will,
But Thy Will
Be Done



Jesus in The Garden of Gethsemene


"...Then saith he unto them,
My soul is exceeding sorrowful,
even unto death:
tarry ye here, and watch with me.

And he went a little further,
and fell on his face, and prayed, saying,
O my Father, if it be possible,
let this cup pass from me:
nevertheless not as I will, but as thou will.

And he cometh unto the disciples,
and findeth them asleep,
and saith unto Peter,
What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation:
the spirit indeed is willing,
but the flesh is weak.

He went away again the second time,
and prayed, saying, O my Father,
if this cup may not pass away from me,
except I drink it, thy will be done...."

Matthew 26:39-42
