Jesus talked about You!

Last week the Greene Flock was in John Chapter 17. This is the high priestly prayer of Jesus shortly before he was arrested. As with so much of the book of John, this prayer is so packed full of incredible truths it is easy to just read them over without stopping to soak in their implications. For instance, think about this fact, Jesus not only prayed for himself and his disciples, but he prayed for you and I. His love extended from that moment over 2000 years ago to this very moment in time to touch our lives today. Not only that, but his prayer was the same for us as it was for the disciples who had spent 3 years of their lives walking with him every day. He wants us to all be with him and he wants us to know him, that the love God the father had for him may be in us, and that Jesus himself might be in us (vs 26). This carries huge implications not only for our lives, but for the world! I challenge you to read John Chapter 17 again very slowly, one sentence at a time. See yourself in it...You were there!
