Memory Verse Challenge: Week 30

Hi everyone!  This week's verse comes from one of my all-time favorite passages in the Bible - John chapter 17.  In this chapter Jesus is praying in the Garden of Gethsemane before being arrested.

He knows He's about to die and prays that God will be glorified through His death.  He prays for His disciples protection.  Then He takes a moment to pray for us (yes - you and me). 

His love for us shines through in the midst of His pain.  He wants us to be with Him in Heaven - to share His home with us and for us to see His glory.  I love that we clearly see His desire to be with us. 

This belief we have, called Christianity, isn't just some process we go through in our lives.  It's about love, relationships and the desire to be together.  There's nothing quite like the feeling of being loved and wanted.  And nobody loves and wants us more than Him.
