Mark 14:32
This verse at the same time highlights both the humanity and Divinity of the Christ. Remember if you will that the original purpose of the earth was for planting gardens. Eden was God’s perfect garden. And man was given the job to tend it. So, Jesus’ choice of this place is at once Divine, but yet so human. This is where God and humanity had their first interactions, in a garden. And this is where Jesus resorted to when preparing for his difficult task. Perhaps he is reminiscing about what could have been, and what can again be a reality by his sacrifice.
Heavenly Father, may we never forget that all that we are as humans has come from you. Sin alienated us from you, but you are not altogether foreign. Without us, there can be a you, but without you, there can be no us. This we must always remember. You are the Progenitor. It is to you we owe everything. Thank you! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
