Mat 26:39 | MHM | STEP | v. 39 : Jesus goes a little farther, falls on his face, and prays, “O my Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” He calls God his Father and asks if there is any way to avoid the suffering that is coming. But he also submits himself completely to God’s will, not his own. This teaches us to trust God and obey him, even when it is very hard.
