He went back and found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you stay awake for one hour? - Luke 22 v 37
In the middle of what was Jesus most stressful, testing and trying time to date His closest friends fell asleep. A few yards away in a garden called Gethsemane, the Son pleaded with The Father for some other way. An escape. A shortcut to the other side. But finally submission to His Fathers will.
Through the anguish and pain His friends slept.
That is the difference Jesus never sleeps through our pain. He is always there.
Indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. - Psalm 121 v 4
God is not sleeping.
