Hildegard Von Bingen Nathan Tyler my pastor, mentor, and good friend always tells us that there has to be a first and that he is only looking for one of us to move. It is not always easy to be the first to move or make an impact in this world. I believe that even Jesus struggled with this as he prayed in the garden of Gethsemane. He left his disciples to pray, asking his father, "My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want your will, not mine." He then returned to his disciples and found them all asleep and when He went back to pray he now said, "My Father! If this cup cannot be taken away until I drink it, your will be done." I believe that the first time that He went to pray He was asking for another way out, He knew that someone had to accomplish what He was to do.
