“For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup,
And the wine is red;
It is fully mixed, and He pours it out . . .” Psalms 73:8
I keep thinking of Jesus asking His Father to please take this cup from Him.
(saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.” Luke 22:42)
Lord, may each of us be willing to take the cup You hand to us. And here’s a simple poem . . .
Willingly
Just as You
took the cup
of Your Father’s
will for You
may each of us
be willing
to do what
You ask us to.
