THIRD SOLUTION TO BEARING A CROSS: COMPLETING GOD'S WILL

There is a third interpretation as to how Christ's Gethsemane prayer was answered.

A second interpretation of "May this cup be taken from me" is that Jesus was simply praying not to die before his appointed time, since that would abort God's plan and fulfill Satan's will. Satan feared Christ's prophesied crucifixion as the culminating act of redemption.... (www.catholic365.com)

"A little righteous anger really brings out the best in the American personality. Our nation was born when 56 patriots got mad enough to sign the Declaration of Independence. We put a man on the moon because Sputnik made us mad at being number two in space. Getting mad in a constructive way is good for the soul- and the country."
