I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one -as you are in me, Father and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me.
– John 17:21(NLT)
JUST LIKE CHRIST AND THE FATHER
A poem and essay by ILMA
Jesus prays for all believers to be unified
He doesn’t want anyone to diversify, but to be united
Like him and the Father, he likes us all to be in harmony
That is the best way we can stay in relationship and unity.
Just like Christ is never separated from the Father
He likes us to stay faithful to him and to one another
It will bring us victory whenever there is no division
Let us stay in love and passionate in our relations.
________________________________________
One of the most fervent prayers that Jesus has for all believers is that we should stay united with the Father and him just as he is very intimate with God. Because of their intimacy, Christ never did anything to make him different from God. He follows everything his heavenly Father does. He says what he says, follows his will and would never do anything that would compromise his relationship with him. Are we like this to our Father or to Christ?
Harmony and unity is essential in any form of relationship or love dies and it doesn’t last long.
