Gethesamane

Syf is finally over... it just feels.. unfinished. The performance was like 19 min 44 sec... but it felt as if it was just a minute! ahh.. looks like its back to the books again.. hhaahaa....

Nevertheless, i'm here to open up all of our eyes again :)
Gethesamane. Heard of it before?

First thing's first, its a song by Christian City church :)

Gethsemane - Christian City Church
the chorus goes:
surrendered and broken, surrendered by choice to be in a sinner's place...
All so You'll be glorified, these hands these feet. Yours not mine.
The work of Calvary, blood that redeems.

Now read these verses

Matthew 26
36Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, "Sit here while I go over there and pray."

37He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled.

38Then he said to them, "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me."

39Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."

40Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. "Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?" he asked Peter. 41"Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak."

42He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done."

43When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy.

44So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing.

45Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46Rise, let us go! Here comes my betrayer!"

I found out something about all of God's children. We usually forget one thing. I myself too have forgotten.. And that is Jesus himself is a living revelation. Sometimes we flip frantically in search fr a revelation when Jesus himself is the revelation! By his stripes we're healed. The tomb of failure and defeat is gone. For everyone, i'm sure there's a different revelation u can find in this song together with the parable. I'm not sharing mine with u sorry.. Find that revelation God has for u yourself :)
