Jesus Is Praying Most Now

Thursday. John 17 :9-21.

Jesus is still praying. He ever lives to pray us through. Thirty years of living, three years of serving, one tremendous act of dying, nineteen hundred years of praying I What an emphasis on prayer! Yet all through, praying had its roots deep down in the living, and serving, and dying. And the prayer at heart is this: that love, real love, might flood our lives, purifying, unifying, and perfecting. Let us pray and — love.
