1st Sorrowful: The Agony in the Garden

In the garden, alone, Jesus sweats drops of blood. The disciples sleep. He sees clearly what is coming and asks the Father to take this cup away. And then: not my will, but yours. We meditate on the loneliness of the faithful heart, on prayer that does not erase fear but walks through it, and on a Savior who knows what it is to dread.
