Jesus closes His final pre-trial teaching with a prayer, albeit a prayer that functions as a sermon! And the emphasis of this prayerful sermon is unity. Jesus desires unity between God and man as well as unity between fellow disciples. The key to this kind of unity is Jesus himself. G.K. Chesterton story. We determine whether or not this prayer is answered. Dare to live the prayer of Jesus by seeking unity with someone with whom you’ve been in conflict.
