In the Garden I am lying,
On the earth I am crying,

Sweating blood I am shaking,
Overcome with your not caring.

For your sinning,
I am trembling,

Burdened with you not knowing,
What it is you are losing,
My loving presence for eternity.

Beautiful. :angel1:

It also seemed to Him that the Father has abandoned Him. Of course, He never lost faith, but it was extremely hard, one’s guess! :gopray:
 
Thank you for sharing this. This image helps me to better understand the Agony in the Garden.

Chris’s greatest suffering was over the lost souls that rejected Him over the course of human history. Some people believe that it was more difficult for Him than the Passion - the reason is He had to go it alone in the Garden until His love for His Father won out over the fear that generated from His humanness. When He committed Himself to do His Father will then Father sent an angel to strengthen Him - so although the Passion was difficult He had the grace to do it - whereas beforehand He was on His own.
 
People’s lives are temporary; their choices are eternal. They are free to choose. It is who they are. God gives them every chance.
