John 17: 1-5; Jesus Prays For Himself

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus prayed. I find a lesson in that. With all that was going on in Jesus' life, especially in this part of John's gospel as he approaches the crucifixion, Jesus still found time to pray to God. No matter how busy Jesus was he always prayed. We stay pretty busy. Over the last few weeks we have all been coming and going without any time to take a breath and enjoy this time of year. And even when it's not Christmas we still manage to run a-mile-a-minute. In those times when we are too busy to do anything we need to find time to pray. Prayer is how we are strengthened, it is how God reaches into our hearts and lifts us up. Prayer is when we spend time with God, something we all need to do more of in our lives. Take this lesson from Jesus and find more time to pray. God bless you.
