The easy way out

I now know Jesus felt the same way I did. He was tempted to take the easy road over the one that led to death. In Matthew Jesus says, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as You will."
Matthew 26:39

If Jesus wanted to avoid pain, shouldn't I feel the same thing? But look at how he handled it...
"not as I will, but as you will."

intense.

My judgment is clouded because I still have so much pain to work through. Pain that only I can face. With no other human.
