Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray." And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed. Then He said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, evento death. Stay here and watch." He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him. And He said, "Abba, Father, all thingsa repossible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will."

I have read this passage countless times but was shocked to realize that this specific “all things” includes not accepting the sacrifice of Christ as an atonement for my sins. I don't want to carry this any farther at all for I quickly run into conflict with God's promises. I think, that of all the verses I've looked at so far, this one really drives home the point that the LORD, God, the Almighty's all means all in a way that no one else's all really means all.
