 Favorite Bible Verses Part 2, Luke 22-42. Jesus says, Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine. How powerful is this? This is right before Jesus is nailed to the cross, and he is scared. He's scared of the pain that he's about to endure, even though he knows that that's God's will. And so even though he is begging God not to let this happen and not to make him go through this, he is saying even though he knows it's going to be painful, he wants God's will to be done over his own. And I think that's a huge lesson that myself and many other Christians can take away from this. Often we feel that we know what's right for us when in reality God's will will always overpower our own. He sees the big picture. We just see a little glimpse.
