Today’s Reading: Matthew 26:36–46
(EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)

“Not as I will, but as You will.”
(Matthew 26:39)

This week’s EFKS theme:
The Gospel of Matthew: Voices of Holy Week — From Cheering Crowd to Lone Prayer

A Thought for Today

Prayer holds steady when fear rises.

What This Means for Us Today

In Gethsemane, Jesus prays while His disciples sleep. He feels sorrow deeply, yet surrenders to the Father’s will.

Obedience is strengthened in prayer.

This is the quiet before the arrest.

Carry This With You

Bring your fears honestly to God.

A Simple Prayer

Father, teach me to trust Your will.
Help me stay awake in prayer.
Amen.

Today’s Invitation

Spend a few extra minutes in prayer today.
