è Praying in Your Gethsemane: Matthew 26:36-46; Luke 22:39-46; Mark 14:32-42
• Where is your journey heading that you don’t want to go?
• What are your options? Relief, resolution? Escape or Glory? (“I could have called angels to deliver ….”) God desires to tell His story through you!
• What are the rewards of obedience? Development, legacy, deposits into others; God will trust you with more!
