Grace for your spirit 1-31-18

Grace for your spirit
I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.  John 17:23

This is the prayer Jesus offered in the garden the night before His crucifixion.  His prayer was for unity.  Unity of His people and His people with His Father.  He desired that we be unified with the Father as He was with Him.  Not only are we made complete in that unity, but it is the best sign that Jesus was sent by God for all of us. We expend lots of effort trying to figure a way to proclaim Christ to a lost world.  The best proclamation is our unity with the Father and each other.
