Will » Of God, the supreme rule of duty
"Abba, Father," he said, "all things are possible to thee; take away this cup from me; yet, not what I will, but what thou willest."
"My food," replied Jesus, "is to do the will of him who sent me, and to complete his work.
Going on a little further, he threw himself on his face in prayer. "My Father," he said, "if it is possible, let me be spared this cup; only, not as I will, but as thou willest."

"Father," he said, "if it is thy pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but thine be done."
Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done--on earth, as in Heaven.
"When you pray," Jesus answered, "say--'Father, May thy named be held holy, thy Kingdom come.
I can do nothing of myself; I judge as I am taught; and the judgment that I give is just, because my aim is not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
For any one who does the will of my Father who is in Heaven is my brother and sister and mother."
So that, God willing, I may be able to come to you with a joyful heart, and enjoy some rest among you.
Again, a second time, he went away, and prayed. "My Father," he said, "if I cannot be spared this cup, but must drink it, thy will be done!"
Do not conform to the fashion of this world; but be transformed by the complete change that has come over your minds, so that you may discern what God's will is--all that is good, acceptable, and perfect.

As he took his leave, "I will come back again to you, please God," and then set sail from Ephesus.
Whoever does the will of God is my brother and sister and mother."
I do not propose to pay you a visit in passing now, for I hope to stay with you for some time, if the Lord permits.
For I have come down from Heaven, to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me; And his will is this--that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the Last Day. For it is the will of my Father that every one who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have Immortal Life; and I myself will raise him up at the Last Day."
But come to you I will, and that soon, if it please the Lord; and then I shall find out, not what words these men use who are so puffed up, but what power they possess;
