When do Christians faint?
[…And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.] Matthew 26: 37-43
Ever noticed how Christians tend to faint and quit on Jesus Christ at the time that they are needed the most.

Hi Corry, thank you for coming over. Don't worry, I've done it too. That is why this passage puts me to shame. I would not have been any better than the disciples.
Blessings,
Sarah
