Jesus,
Thinking about Peter, I always feel fear.
Do I look like Peter?
Will I look like Peter,
the person who made Ananias and Sapphira die?(1)
Jesus,
please lead me not into temptation,
but deliver me from evil.(2)
Amen.

Jesus,
Is there any love like our love?
Love is to go together.
Going everywhere.
Foxes have dens and birds have nests,
but we go and have no place to lay our head.*
Going with a young heart.
Joy and peace.
I love to go with you.
Amen.
PTH
Jesus,
Please promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development,
provide access to justice for all
and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.*
Amen.

Jesus,
When you saw Nathanael approaching,
you said of him,
“Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.”*
Nathanael was the person who said about you,
“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?” Continue reading Prayer 462
Jesus,
“Philip found Nathanael and told him,
‘We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law,
and about whom the prophets also wrote
—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.’
‘Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?’
Nathanael asked.”* Continue reading Prayer 461
Jesus,
Wishing I’ll become absorbed in you.
Duality will disappear.
We’ll be one.
Amen.
PTH
Jesus,
Heaven and earth will pass away,
but your words will never pass away.(1)
We all come from dust, and to dust all return;(2)
but you,
the Creator of the ends of the earth(3),
are not coming and not going.
You simply are. Continue reading Prayer 459
Jesus,
In your Last Supper with your disciples,
you predicted Peter would deny knowing you three times,
and indeed, Peter denied knowing you three times.*
Jesus,
you knew your disciple would deny you,
how did you feel? Continue reading Prayer 458
Jesus,
Ironic.
You said, “I am the life”(1)
when you were dying
and surely you would be dead.
Of course, no one believes in that.
Magical.
When you died,
your disciples believed in that,
believing that you were the life. Continue reading Prayer 457
Jesus,
There is nothing new under the sun,(1)
why did you do miracles,
from changing water into wine at the start(2)
to raising Lazarus from the dead at the end?(3)
Because humans like new things,
because humans believe they’ll grow in seeing new things,
you did miracles,
you did new and strange things. Continue reading Prayer 456
Jesus,
Your main job was to teach people how be one with God.
So why did you do miracles?
Miracles such as healing of
the blind, the lame, the lepers, the deaf and the dead?*
Was healing your way of touching people? Continue reading Prayer 455
Jesus,
Before knowing you,
healing by praying is a magic.
After knowing you,
healing by praying is nothing.
Making friend with you,
all things are possible.*
Amen.
