Dear Friend in the Lord,
Faith – Vulnerability: In today’s Gospel, Jesus prays fervently to His Father to protect and unite His People in His Truth of Salvation, from the “evil one”. Ponder on, “The evil of this world is ‘powerful, tempting and destructive’ to our families, our lives and our faith. Beg God for His Light, Love and Wisdom to live in His Ways, at all times.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
John 17:11b, 15-19
Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said: ‘Holy Father, keep those you have given me true to your name, so that they may be one like us.
‘I am not asking you to remove them from the world, but to protect them from the evil one. They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world. Consecrate them in the truth; your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world, and for their sake I consecrate myself so that they too may be consecrated in truth.’
