Disciples must surrender their will to God’s will

³⁶Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to the disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” ³⁷He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and he became anguished and distressed. ³⁸Then he said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, even to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake with me.” ³⁹Going a little farther, he threw himself down with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if possible, let this cup pass from me! Yet not what I will, but what you will.” ⁴⁰Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour? ⁴¹Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” ⁴²He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done.” ⁴³He came again and found them sleeping; they could not keep their eyes open. ⁴⁴So leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same thing once more. ⁴⁵Then he came to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is approaching, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. ⁴⁶Get up, let us go. Look! My betrayer is approaching!”
