To fully align my will with God’s
I need to struggle in prayer
Just as my Saviour did that night
In Gethsemane Garden where
Alone He prayed in anguish of soul
In which no one else could share.
When I’m in my garden of suffering
I come to God in earnest prayer
It is then that my family & friends can’t help
Although they would like to share
And help me through this time of pain
Some of my burden bear.
It’s in the garden that I feel
The full weight of God’s holy will
But as I wrestle in my mind
I hear God speak “Be Still
Listen my child and you will find
That the plans I have for you
Are far better than what you’re asking for
Just put your whole trust in me.”
So, in faith I accept God’s will for me
Knowing for sure I will see
That my suffering now will eventually be
All for my own good and God’s glory.
Matthew 26:36-44
