The Heart of Christ: Unity (John 17:20-23)

In John 17 we get a glimpse of the very heart of Jesus. On the night of his betrayal, only hours before his crucifixion, Jesus prayed with his disciples in the upper room. He prayed for himself. He prayed for his disciples. And he prayed for us. His prayer for us was that we would all be “one” so that the world would believe that the Father sent Jesus. Our love for one another is the ultimate apologetic. We tried lots of ways to convince people that Jesus really is the Son of God and that salvation is in him. Perhaps, we should take a fresh look at the way Jesus prayed for… our oneness in him. May we be challenged to live lives of radical unity with other believers in Jesus, motivated by the love of God and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
