John 17:11, abridged
Seventh Sunday of Easter (Year B)
©️2021 Gloria M. Chang
Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Matthew 6:9 (RSV)
Holy Father, keep them in your name,
that they may be one just as we are.
Traditional Chinese Translation
《因你之名合而為一》
聖父，請祢因祢的名保守他們，
使他們合而為一像我們一樣。
Dear GMC, thank you for your reflection; orange flowers are my favorite to gaze at when praying. Thank you for reminding us, like a Franciscan prayer says, that Jesus came to love us and show us the love of the Father and how we are to love the Father.
Thank you, fdan. The trinity of orange tulips naturally enters into this dialogue about the Father.
