 What do we do with this image of Jesus? Simple. We read it when we feel the same. We read it when we feel afraid. For isn't it likely that fear was one of the emotions Jesus felt? He saw something in the future so fierce, so foreboding, that he begged for a change of plans. Father, if you're willing, take away this cup of suffering. How remarkable that Jesus felt such fear. But how kind that he told us about it. We see no mask of strength.
