“HOLY FATHER, I PRAY NOT ONLY FOR THEM, BUT ALSO FOR THOSE WHO WILL BELIEVE IN ME THROUGH THEIR WORD, SO THAT THEY MAY ALL BE ONE.” JN 17:20-26
Humbly submit your will to God (Thy Will be done) and consecrate yourself to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through Mary and Joseph.
Jesus Christ’s prayer to the Father today is about unity (It’s so cool when God is praying to Himself). He is still praying with the Apostles at the Last Supper. As Jesus is one with the Father in the Holy Trinity, so He is praying for the Apostles and us to be one with Jesus and the Father. Every baptized soul is united to God and we make up the mystical body of Christ; Christ is the head and we are the body guided by the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ came to marry the human and divine, to unify us with the Trinity. When we bring our souls to God’s grace, pray, love the unlovable, fast, ask for mercy, forgive and ask for forgiveness, live unselfishly we help the body, when we sin we choose to distance ourselves from God’s mercy and grace and we hurt the body.
We have 70-80 years to move on earth as the Mystical body and to strive to be holy which will leave the next generation something special physically and spiritually. On the contrary if we do not choose to remain in the Father and Son we leave behind a loss of faith, a country in turmoil, and nature that is better or worse off than we left it.
Jesus wants nothing but for every generation to know Him so we may one day be back with the Father. He wants it so much He came to us to die. His love is the most powerful thing in the world, it transforms people, and in return transforms the world. Every generation needs saints, are you ready to answer the call?
God has given us everything we need through His Son. Jesus has fulfilled His mission through His death and resurrection, we have begun ours with baptism. We live it when we remain in the Father’s love through the Son. May we finish it with sainthood by doing the will of God each day.
Today’s challenge: Work for unity with God, your family, your friends, your classmates and coworkers, and your community. How? Be a servant as Jesus was for us in obedience to the Father!
Be a servant, be a saint today!
