            If I had been chosen by Jesus to join Him in the garden as He prayed.  Would I have stayed awake?  Would I have known what to pray?

            In His soul He knew there wasn’t, and He chose the cross: for those sleeping in the garden, and for those of us throughout history who would follow..
