Prayer in the Garden

Prayer in the Garden

Jesus enters the garden in the intense, black night. As the disciples fall asleep nearby, Jesus prays to God first to let this cup of suffering pass Him by, but finally that God's will be done. In the climax of His agony, Jesus accepts God's will as Judas enters and betrays Him with a kiss. Jesus takes up His cross and makes His way to Calvary as the crowd wails passionately and looks on. The soldiers crucify Him and as Jesus dies, His Mother falls at the foot of the cross.
