The Prayer of Jesus
John 17:1-11a
Again, we
hear the Gospel proclaimed on the Seventh Sunday of Easter. Jesus’ prayer seems
to sum up what was, what is, and what will be. He was one with the Father
before the world began. While on earth he remained one with the Father while
glorifying and revealing the Father to the world. Now it is time for him to
return to the Father.
Prayer: I pray for all Christian disciples. May we find courage when
challenged. May we find joy in the truth.
