John 19
The internal struggle of Jesus just before His death was described by how Jesus prayed and tears like blood the night before He was crucified.

He suffered the physical pain, but endured through. He did not "die" half way while carrying the cross, or bled to death from the hitting and flogging. He was nailed and maintain his conscienceness.

v30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

What a way to conclude. He asked to end and it end, but remember, he suffered before he came to this stage.

The process that Jesus went through. But the promise and the end - Jesus knew.

Do we know the end, the plan..., but do we know the the route to it and it may be not without pain or suffering.

But during so, do we know God? Enjoy the step with Jesus, enjoy the process in down and up, but knowing well that we will finish well.
