Unity

Holy Father, I pray not only for these, but for those also who through their words will believe in me. May they all be one.
Jn.17:20,21

Jesus' final prayer is for those who "will believe". He is praying for me.

This makes my faith personal. My God is not a distant deity, he is a close friend. And he craves for me to be unified with fellow believers. This includes other denominations. 

There is a power in unity that is attractive. No one wants to join a group that squabbles. 

Lord, help me be an agent for unity today.

Saint Bede please pray for me.
