<p>I am always encouraged by the verses that show how Jesus dealt with His flesh. <strong>For this reason He had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that He might become a merciful and faithful High Priest in service to God, and that He might make atonement for the sins of the people. Heb 2:17 </strong> This shows the importance and the reason. When at Gethsemane we are shown the most difficult time He dealt with. To sweat blood shows how intense the struggle was for Him. I do not think it was the pain He wanted to avoid. His Love for us and what He needed to do for us, I believe He looked forward to bringing Freedom. I do think He knew for a short time, He would be separated from The Father, that I believe was the most difficult for Him to face. Do not get me wrong, all the pain and all that went with it, must had been so very heavy.</p>
<p>Yet, I believe we can learn and see a great lesson, when we consider How Jesus and The Father felt, about the separation. Giving us something powerful, to strive for never doing anything to be separated from Him. But, more than that I think we should strive for, a closer relationship to Him.</p>

Jesus in the Garden also shows us, no matter how large the situation, through Prayer we can get through them and see Victory.</p> Even though Jesus is God's so…tag:www.allaboutgod.net,2013-03-26:1383940:Comment:14346002013-03-26T21:07:53.034Zjourneymanhttp://www.allaboutgod.net/profile/Jmeister
<p>Even though Jesus is God's son and one with hi, he pleads with God for"this cup to be taken away". A man who knows what he must do and still he looks for a different outcome. We pray for God to take away our problems and certainly God can remove all problems and suffering but, is it in his plan?</p>
<p>By staying with God in prayer Jesus knows his answer. Pray that God shows us our answers too.</p>
