"Somebody Prayed For You!"
I'm praying not only for them
But also for those who will believe in me
Because of them and their witness about me.
The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind—
Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you,
So they might be one heart and mind with us.
Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me.
The same glory you gave me, I gave them,
So they'll be as unified and together as we are—
I in them and you in me.
Then they'll be mature in this oneness,
And give the godless world evidence
That you've sent me and loved them
In the same way you've loved me.
(V 20-23, The Message)
During my morning devotions last week I was reminded of John 17. Jesus Christ in a prayer, prayed for you and for me. What an awesome awareness that before I was born somebody had prayed for me.
As we journey together, may we stop and remember that who we were, who we are, who we will become and who we represent is surrounded by a prayer that is bigger then you and me. Below is a song to complete your time of reflective meditative thought that "Somebody Prayed For You!"
