After telling His disciples
to take heart in all tribulation,
that He has overcome the world,
Jesus lifted His eyes to
Heaven
and said: Father, the hour has come,
glorify Me that I might glorify You,
Receive Me back home,
into the presence I had once
with You before this world existed.
Although I will no longer
be
in the flesh with them, please
send a helper to live inside them,
Who will allow them to be
one
as we are one, Me in You, You
in Me, them in Us and We in them.
I ask this also for those
who will
come to believe in Me and You,
that we all too may be one together.
And then Jesus knelt in
the garden:
as beads
of sweat and blood so fell
nevertheless, not My will but Yours be
Done.
