Gospel John 17:1-11
Father, it is time for you to glorify me
Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said:
‘Father, the hour has come:
glorify your Son
so that your Son may glorify you;
and, through the power over all mankind that you have given him,
let him give eternal life to all those you have entrusted to him.
And eternal life is this:
to know you,
the only true God,
and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
I have glorified you on earth
and finished the work that you gave me to do.
Now, Father, it is time for you to glorify me
with that glory I had with you
before ever the world was.
I have made your name known
to the men you took from the world to give me.
They were yours and you gave them to me,
and they have kept your word.
Now at last they know
that all you have given me comes indeed from you;
for I have given them the teaching you gave to me,
and they have truly accepted this, that I came from you,
and have believed that it was you who sent me.
I pray for them;
I am not praying for the world
but for those you have given me,
because they belong to you:
all I have is yours
and all you have is mine,
and in them I am glorified.
I am not in the world any longer,
but they are in the world,
and I am coming to you.’
Alleluia, alleluia!
I will not leave you orphans, says the Lord;
I will come back to you,
and your hearts will be full of joy.
Alleluia!
Picture from meeting on 16 May
Picture of Jesus on the Cross. A great light surrounds the Cross and is so blinding we can’t look at it, The Cross disappears and the light becomes more gentle and from its midst comes Jesus, with His arms outstretched in welcome.
"My people, come to Me and bring your burdens and I will soothe you, I will love you and I will anoint you afresh, for you TRULY are Sons and Daughters of the Most High.
You are Mine, and as I Am in you so you are in Me. Come to Me and I will touch you each individually, for I know your needs and the desires of your hearts, I love you, yes I love you and I will never leave you orphan for you are at the centre of My Sacred Heart, and in My Sacred Heart lies Love personified. You are Mine and I say to each personally I love you, and My Heart aches with love of you, My child come be with Me and so lessen the coldness I feel and the ache I feel for souls who ignore Me, Ah My Poor Heart is aflame with love of them and they turn away, love Me My people and the flames of My love will surround you and penetrate you, bringing Peace, Love and Joy.
Jesus"
