In Luke 22:39-53, we see Jesus retreat with his disciples to the Mount of Olives to pray before a crowd arrives to arrest him. As he struggles to accept what is ahead, Jesus' prayers are intimate, emotionally honest, and ultimately submissive to the Father's will. In contrast, our own prayer life may resemble a distant, impassive wish list in which we act first and ask for guidance later. But by using Jesus' prayers as a model, Andrew Schey teaches that the proper emphasis of prayer is how to honestly wrestle with the reality of what God wants so that we can begin to say "Your kingdom come, Your will be done."
