We draw comfort in our lives knowing that Jesus knows each of us personally. He cares about what we do and how we do it. By giving ourselves to His love the door is opened to eternal life. Only in this way can we realize true freedom.

Tuesday of the Seventh Week of Easter
In today’s Gospel John 17: 1-7 Jesus gives a priestly prayer for unity. He acknowledges that He glorifies the Father by faithfully accomplishing His mission. But He also glorifies Him by raising humanity to a state where we can glorify God both here and in heaven. To this end the Father has given all power over humanity to Jesus, to open for all a way to eternal life. “ They belonged to you, but you gave them to me”.
We draw comfort in our lives knowing that Jesus knows each of us personally. He cares about what we do and how we do it. By giving ourselves to His love the door is opened to eternal life. Only in this way can we realize true freedom.
