Marked To Surrender

garden.
Jesus asked the Father to take the cup away.
Jesus submitted to the Father's will.
The disciples failed to stay awake and pray and did not keep
their promise to go to the cross with Him.
The disciples failed to keep their promise to not deny Him.
All of us fall short but God uses our failures to produce a
dependence on Him.
Our “I will” eventually collapses and give opportunities for
humility to grow.
Jesus knows we will fall short.
