"I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory which you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to behold my glory which you have given me in your love for me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you; and these know that you have sent me. I made known to them your name, and I will make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them."

God is Love. He shows the world that even as He has loved His Son, so also He loves the world. The Son makes known the Father to the world and it is in the Son, that we know the Father. O Lord, I want to behold the Glory of Christ, given Him by His Father, given in Love before the foundation of the world. May the Love of the Father be in me, this day, and may I reflect the Glory of the Son. Amen.
