All journalists should be humble because we are so often wrong.

Jesus understands not only our bodily suffering, but also our spiritual suffering, in these feelings of abandonment. He was like us in all things, except sin. And he experienced all that we did.

We might find the quiet peace of genuine trust if we surrendered our willfulness early and often, rather than as a last resort.

The cup of submission, of suffering, of death itself becomes the vessel not of our punishment or of God’s wrath, but of our salvation.

I was deeply moved by a visit to the Garden of Gethsemane and to the Church of All Nations that is accessible through the garden.
