NOT MY WILL, BUT YOURS

"Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine."
 - Luke 22:42
Expectations are dangerous. When we let our expectations rule us, we don't leave room for our experiences - what's actually happening. But we can let go of our own will and be surprised by something different. Jesus leaves an ultimate reminder. Even though he was God's son, with his own expectations, he submitted to someone else. He reminds us, not our will, but his.
