How Pathetic We Are!

In my 365 Day Bible today...I was up to Mark 14 where Jesus and the disciples are in Gethsemane.

Jesus is praying (and I guess that He was hoping that the disciples, too, would be praying). He goes a little way off for some privacy.

When He comes back....Jesus finds the disciples sleeping.

Some translations read, "Could you not pray with me for one hour?" (v.37)

We might think the disciples are really slack, but I too have trouble focussing my prayer for a length of time.

But the goal is before us: can we not pray for one hour?

Have a great day,


Peter Clark.
