Jesus Prayed

Consider the challenges you are currently facing. In the garden, Jesus fervently prayed for you and me before his crucifixion. His prayer was not in vain. He desires us to never feel alone in our struggles but to always receive the best from Him.

Each moment, we are blessed with everything we need from above, just as we pray in the Our Father, “Give us this day our daily bread.” How comforting it is to live in God’s presence, to be one with Him in all our decisions, thoughts, and actions. Surrendering everything to Jesus allowing Him to guide us, is a profound act of trust and love.

Every morning, I look at my schedule and pray for God’s presence in everything I do. I’m often so involved with what I do with my neighbor that I know He is with me in the person I am seeing. The intention behind my prayer each morning is enough to keep me in His Presence and open me as a channel of His abundance.

Gospel Challenge: 

Jesus prayed for our unity, that we would all be one as He is one with His Father. Each morning, invite Jesus to walk with you throughout the day. You will experience a profound sense of unity with everyone you meet, including those who may be challenging. Jesus’ prayer for unity is not a distant hope but a present reality waiting to be embraced. May His peace be with you always.

Love Your Neighbor!
