Gospel of John 17:21

How wonderful it is to see people living and acting in harmony! It is s sign of the Lord’s presence among his people for it mirrors the unity of Jesus with his Father. Everybody needs to belong to a group, whether it be a family or a church. The important thing is that we belong to each group in the right way. Jesus shows us the right way to be united with one another. He is the “vine;” we are the “branches.” If we remain in him, we will be united with one another in the right way.
