John 17:11 “Holy Father protect them by the power of your name – the name you gave me – so that they may be one as we are one.”
What struck me: Why pray for protection? They would be attacked with the goal of dividing them. Jesus prayed for protection so that they would be one as Jesus and the Father are one. This is an incredibly tight connection and it’s what Jesus wants for all of His followers. Wow.
Spacepets:
Truth: This is what I need to strive for. I need to get better at fighting for unity! The unity of the church is so important and I need to pray for God’s protection over us. God, protect us so that we can be one as you and your son are one.
