07-19-2023 Matthew Ch 26 v-3941 Will Yours not Mine I obey
Gospel of Matthew Ch 26 v- 39 thru 41
39 (Jesus) advanced a little and fell prostrate in prayer, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; yet, not as I will, but as you will.” 40 When he returned to his disciples he found them asleep. He said to Peter, “So you could not keep watch with me for one hour? 41 Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
“Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test.” Is your spirit willing yet your flesh is weak? Should it say, The Final Test?” Somewhere in each and every one is this feeling of ultimate repentance being able to get away with living in the world which by the way many times becomes a living fantasy for we do what we want when we want it. There is no limitation here. The world has your rest and your bedroom too stealing your Spirit in the flesh until you lose. What will you lose? Salvation? This surrender seems so hard for many. The road is narrow to Heaven they say not many people take the journey each day. We want to think that each and every soul goes here but the Bible is very clear and that frightens many to witness Him in fear. Like me and Truth and those you convert by just being the real you. “Do unto others as you want life to do to you.” So stay awake in Christ in every step you take. Be watchful for evil and learn how to pray what you practice in reading the Word of God each day you too will proclaim His freedom from sin by living love, faith and hope of His grace where Life Eternal we win as we eternally say God First in Jesus should keep you awake in goodwill each day. Amen.
Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Prayers for a friend and his wife for a baby to be born. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Will Yours not Mine I obey**
Prayer prostration advanced Jesus to say
Father Mine pass this cup away
Will Yours not Mine I obey
Returning to ask His disciples to pray
Asleep He found them against the wall
Peter said Jesus awakened by His call
Hour one Me watch keep not at all
Pray and watch test under go not your fall
Willing is spirit
Weak is flesh
Learn to hear it
While taking your rest
