Quiet Time Coaching: "Gethsemane - Keep Watch with Jesus"
Today I bring you an introduction to a guest blog post on prayer by my friend Dr Steve Kinnard. The full text is on my website on this page.
For now, I leave you with the poem that concludes Steve's post.
Keep Watch With Jesus
Jesus on the Sea of Galilee
Jesus in Caperaum
Jesus in Bethsaida
Jesus in Chorazim
Jesus in Caesarea Philippi
Jesus in Nazareth
Jesus on the Temple Mount
Jesus on the Mount of Olives
Jesus in Gethsemane asking his disciple
Keep watch, stay awake, pray
Pray that you will not fall into temptation
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak
Jesus on a cross at Golotha
Arms outstretched
Breathing his last breath
Jesus in a tomb
But not for very long
Jesus rose
Up from the grave-Jesus rose
Keep watch
Stay awake
Pray
Pray that you will not fall into temptation
Keep watch with Jesus.
