Praying for his friends

Haiku to unite

He’s praying for them.

Jesus knows his time is near,

and prays for his friends.

Knows the day comes near

when they will need each other

and must stand as one.

Not just for his friends

but for those who hear their words;

he prays for them, too.

This unity thing:

Jesus one with his Father,

Jesus one with us.

I and you and them;

much mutual indwelling

speaking unity.

From the beginning,

splashing over ev’ryone,

love, divine and true.

Witness to the world

with your unity and love,

prove that you are mine.

A love explosion!

Yours for me, growing in them,

united in love.
