The night sky was dark, and the moon light was shining over the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives, Jesus was kneeling against the rock by the trees, His head resting on his right forearm, He stood and went by the tree where his disciples Peter, James and his brother John were sleeping, Jesus had told them to wake up as he was continued to speak to them, "Could you not watch with me a while? " Peter then asked Jesus concerned, "Master, what has happened to you?" John whispered, "Should I call the others, Lord?" Jesus had said, "No, John. They should not see me like this!" Peter was then asking Jesus if he was in danger and they should flee, Jesus said looking at Peter, "Stay here, watch, and pray!" John had whispered asking Peter what was happening to Jesus, Peter then told him that Jesus was afraid, He spoke of danger, even as they ate supper. Of betrayal and- The bird screeching had interrupted Peter, the three disciples had watched as Jesus was praying by the tree.
You were watching as Jesus was praying by the trees in the Garden, You were one of his disciples and you were close to him knowing he was a father to you, You saw that he was praying to his father, You saw him in distress, Jesus was overwhelmed with sorrow, he was experiencing fear and agony, He was troubled by the betrayal and abandonment he was about to endure from the ones he loved. His face was sweating in blood, tears in his eyes as he was praying to his father, "Hear me Father, Rise up and defend me, save me from the traps they sent for me."
Jesus knelt on the grass he was looking up as Satan who appeared in a hooded cloak was asking Jesus, "Do you really believe that one man can bear the full burden of sin alone!" Jesus continued praying knelt down , "Shelter me O Lord, I trust in you, In you I take my refuge! Satan told Jesus that no man would carry the burden alone, and saving their souls would be costly, Jesus does not respond to Satan's words and continued praying, "O Father, you can do all things, If this is possible, let this chalice pass from me and let your will be done, not mine!"
