13:1 How Long? When Jesus cried out “My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?” (Mark 15:34), all creation bent low to hear God’s precious Son express the fullness of human suffering with an agonizing question. In Jesus’ prayer the night before, our Savior modeled the best posture for responding to doubts and questions—“Yet I want your will to be done, not mine” (Mark 14:36). By surrendering his will to the Father, Jesus left us with the correct response to all of our questions: trust.
