The Garden of Gethsemane～Prayer

These pictures are the Garden of Gethsemane, Israel. Gethsemane means oil squeezing in Hebrew.

Olive trees become bigger and thicker as they grow in age. Unfortunately, there seem no trees from Jesus' time, and even the oldest one might be about two hundred years old or so. Although it's been seven years since I went to Israel, I still can't organize and release hundreds of pictures on my Website.

When I was a beginner of faith, I thought "prayer" meant God would answer my prayers as I expected. As a result it may come true, of course.

If you face an insoluble problem, it is hard to resolve only by your own thoughts.
What I learned from my experiences is to stop worrying, raise my white flag of surrender to God ASAP and put all problems on the palms of Jesus' hands.

I came to understand that this is the best/perfect way to solve problems, for His hands are miraculous delivering 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish to 5,000 people.

Sticking to your own idea must be binding God's hands. I fully trust in Him. Now I pray like this, "..current situation is △△ and I hope this will be solved as 〇〇, not by my will, but Your will."

Thank you for reading and God bless you!
