This sermon exposes the fragile space between sincere confidence and painful collapse, where disciples overestimate their strength and underestimate their need for prayer. While human resolve falters under fear, fatigue, and pressure, Jesus remains steady, entering deep sorrow as he bears the weight of sin that is not his own. In the garden, Jesus prays honestly yet submissively, freely yielding his will to the Father and choosing obedience even when it costs everything. The good news is that when our faith wavers and fails, Christ’s obedience holds firm, securing mercy, forgiveness, and hope for those who draw near to him.
