Matthew 26:36

Not everybody needs to know about everything that is troubling you. If you're having problems and need people to pray with you, it might not be the best solution to involve everybody. Look at Jesus. he's facing the most stressful night of his life. He's being tempted to not go through with the mission, and he tells 8 of his disciples to sit here while he goes somewhere else with 3 of them to pray. Pretty interesting. I can't imagine the stress he was under.
The other thing that is amazing to me is that Jesus took the time to pray. I tend to react and plan when I'm in high stress situations. I rarely, if ever, stop to pray about it. JM
