Just got a tweet from church to read this passage in preparation for tomorrow's Good Friday service...
36Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, "Sit here while I go over there and pray." 37He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38Then he said to them, "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me."
39Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."
Matthew 26:36-39
Note to self: Bring Kleenex tomorrow.

Were you at the Good Friday service last year at Buckhead Church? It was probably the most powerful service I have ever seen. I'll miss Buckhead Church this Easter. {My daughter has moved from Atlanta} xoxo
Actually we missed it last year - can't remember why... but we've been many times before. It's incredibly powerful - love it! Have a great Easter weekend!
