In today’s Gospel we hear part of Jesus’s final discourse to his Apostles. These are among the most touching and inspiring words of Scripture. Jesus speaks from his heart, giving instructions and encouragement to his closest friends. Directing his words to his Father, Jesus prays: “And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me…”
Take time this week to read this gospel as Jesus’ prayer for us. How will you respond to this prayer?
