In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus' humanity is on full display as he wrestles in prayer with the reality that his appointed time on the cross is near. Overwhelmed with extreme sorrow and grief, he invites those closest to him to keep watch and pray with him, thus revealing how the Son freely chose, out of love, to be bound to human mortality for our sake. In the process, we also learn ways to support one another in times of great sorrow and grief.
