Jesus in the Garden

Reading: Luke 22:39-46

Devotional: Jesus sweating drops of blood in Gethsemane reveals something profound: surrender doesn't mean the absence of struggle. Jesus felt everything we feel—the desire to run, the fear of what's ahead, the tension between flesh and spirit. Yet He chose obedience anyway. This gives us permission to be honest with God about our desires and fears while remaining committed to His will. You don't have to pretend you have it all together. God already knows your struggles. True surrender isn't about eliminating difficult feelings; it's about choosing God's will despite them. What honest conversation do you need to have with God today about what you're really feeling?
