">After saying this, Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, 'Father, the hour has come; give glory to your Son, that the Son may give glory to You. You have given Him power over all mortals, and You want Him to bring eternal life to all You have entrusted to Him. For this is eternal life: to know You, the only true God and the One You sent, Jesus Christ.

"'I have glorified You on earth and finished the work that You gave me to do. Now, Father, give me in Your presence the same Glory I had with You before the world began.

"'I have made Your name known to those You gave me from the world. They were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they kept Your word. And now they know that all You have given Me comes indeed from You. I have given them the teaching I received it and know in truth that I came from You; and they believe that You have sent Me.

"'I pray for them; I do not pray for the world but for those who belong to You and whom You have given to Me--indeed all I have is Yours and all You have is Mine--and now they are My glory. I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world whereas I am going to You.'"

JOHN 17:1-11a

"Thank You, Father, for the talent You have entrusted me.
May I use it well to give You glory. Amen."
