Most amazing, most amazing forever thanks to him for he prayed:

‘Holy Father,
I pray not only for these,
but for those also
who through their words will believe in me.
May they all be one.
Father, may they be one in us,
as you are in me and I am in you,
so that the world may believe it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so completely one
that the world will realise that it was you who sent me
and that I have loved them as much as you loved me.
Father, I want those you have given me
to be with me where I am,
so that they may always see the glory you have given me
because you loved me before the foundation of the world.’

(NJB)

DEO GRATIAS!

PAX ET BONUM!!! +
 
Father, I want those you have given me
to be with me where I am,

I love this line. Can the Father refuse the Son His request? Of course not! We will be with Jesus wherever He is because it is HIS desire, not because we earn it or deserve it but because HE wants it.

Praise be Jesus Christ!
