Christ's Final Week - Thursday

It was on this day, Passover, that Jesus met with his disciples in an upper room. He gave the Passover meal new meaning. He pointed out to his followers that the loaf of bread and the wine cup represented his body that was soon to be sacrificed and his blood that would soon be shed for the forgiveness of sins. This became known as the "Lord's Supper. After singing a hymn, he and his disciples went to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prayed in agony, knowing what lay before him. Unforunately, there were those who were with him who could not watch and pray without falling asleep. When it comes to our spiritual well being, do we fall asleep or are we ever alert?
