Scripture: Mark 14:27-42

The night before the cross, Jesus tells his closest friends they’ll all abandon him. Peter insists he never will. Hours later, in a garden called Gethsemane, Jesus falls to the ground in anguish while those same friends fall asleep. Why was Jesus so afraid? What was the “cup” he begged his Father to take away? And what hope is there for people like us when facing circumstances beyond our strength?
