Your perfect plan to send Jesus to the world shows me just who you are. Not some angry thunderer, but our loving Papa who was willing to give all for us, to reconcile us back to yourself and show us the depth of your boundless love. You revealed your perfect oneness with Jesus and invited us into that oneness without regard to our state.

Open arms to both the prodigal and the “faithful” sons. Both with their own unique rebellion, one welcomed home from the depths of debauchery and the other the offended unwitting owner of the whole ranch all along. One free from pride to enjoy the blessings the other trapped in his ungrateful pride.

The reality of your love is demonstrated from the foundation of time and eternity yet you have stepped into our reality out of eternity and set everything right between us. Showing us the perfect relationship we now have with you through Jesus by the way he lived in perfect union with you. He told us that he was the perfect reflection or representation of you Papa. His life of love was the ultimate picture of your true nature.

Knowing you’ll never let go of my hand Papa, has me completely undone. Sitting in your lap is the best place to be. Wrapped in your arms of love and under your sheltering wings is the ultimate refuge. Your all consuming love will never be completely understood. Even eternity is not long enough to decipher the depths of your love for us.

““And I ask not only for these disciples, but also for all those who will one day believe in me through their message. I pray for them all to be joined together as one even as you and I, Father, are joined together as one. I pray for them to become one with us so that the world will recognize that you sent me. For the very glory you have given to me I have given them so that they will be joined together as one and experience the same unity that we enjoy. You live fully in me and now I live fully in them so that they will experience perfect unity, and the world will be convinced that you have sent me, for they will see that you love each one of them with the same passionate love that you have for me. “Father, I ask that you allow everyone that you have given to me to be with me where I am! Then they will see my full glory— the very splendor you have placed upon me because you have loved me even before the beginning of time. “You are my righteous Father, but the unbelieving world has never known you in the perfect way that I know you! And all those who believe in me also know that you have sent me! I have revealed to them who you are and I will continue to make you even more real to them, so that they may experience the same endless love that you have for me, for your love will now live in them, even as I live in them!””
