The Passion 2013: tears of blood

The Passion 2013: tears of blood by ric gustafson


Jesus stared into the cup. He saw all the sins of all mankind. He saw idolatry, murder, hate, lies and deceit.
Jesus cried " Abba Father".
Tears as blood poured onto the ground. His body began to shake in terror. An angel appeared and the cup faded away. Jesus struggled to his feet and quietly walked back to his disciples. He noticed they were sleeping. " You could not stay the night with me".
Jesus went back to pray. As he prayed, again his tears flowed unto the ground like blood. He saw what was in the cup.
" Oh Father, if there is any way please remove this cup from me!". He cried to his Father. " But if not then your will be done". Jesus collapsed onto the ground in a puddle of his own blood.
Jesus yielded to his Father's will and again an angel ministered to him.
He walked back to his sleeping disciples.
