Unity Church Of Clearwater

Jesus, our Wayshower, taught us how to pray with and for one another. He said: “This is how you are to pray: Our Father in heaven” (Matthew 6:9). Therefore, whatever we affirm for others, we also claim for ourselves. Whatever we claim for others, we also affirm for ourselves, for we are all children of the same Father – the same Sustainer-Creator, Source. We are one in Spirit. Jesus said, concerning His beloved followers: “I pray for them . . . . And I consecrate myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in truth . . . that they may be one” (John 17:9,19-21 ). St. Paul, inspired by the Christ, wrote: “We always give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you . . . . We do not cease praying for you” (Colossians 1:3-12). Jesus, our Master, lovingly revealed that we would come to know that true prayer requires no intermediary: “On that day you will ask in my name, and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father for you. For the Father himself loves you” (John 16:26-7).
