John 17:20-26

Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said:

‘Holy Father,

I pray not only for these,

but for those also

who through their words will believe in me.

May they all be one.

For some reason I thought that Our Lord always got what he prayed for . But with this prayer I realize that some of his prayers are still in the making. There is nothing more hurtful to a parent than when siblings stop talking to each other for whatever reason. We may not do this on a world scale but what can we do on a small scale. What needs to happen to bury the hatchet in your own circle. We can do this you know!

As a world we have come a long way to peace and freedom. But our work presses on. In my own circle what seems to get in the way is money. There is some strife between those who have and not have. Here is how you bury that one. Work hard for your own and send good wishes to those who have. Just change that attitude.

Come to think of it, Bob Marley tried to tell us “ONE LOVE”
