3/31/10 When I was growing up, we had worship on Sunday night. We often had favorite hymn requests, and we used the old Cokesbury hymnal. A hymn that made the top of the charts was "In the Garden." I thought it was about our special relationship with God in a personal and private way in prayer. And it is. But as I read the passion story this Holy Week, I am coming to understand the hymn as about Christ's prayer for us and His relationship with the Father in prayer, especially as it is portrayed in the Garden of Gethsemane on His last night before the crucifixion.
Love,
Lynn
