Philip said to him: ‘Lord, show us the Father and it is enough for us.’

Jesus said to him: ‘For such a long time I have been with you all, but you have not come to  know me, Philip, have you?’ The one who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, “Show us the Father?” Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you I do not say from myself.  The Father staying in me, does his works. Believe me, that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me. But if, not believe because of those works. 

Truly, truly I tell you, the one who believes in me- that one will do the works which I do and they will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. And  whatever you ask in my name I will do it, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.  If you ask me anything, in my name, I will do it.’

O Love, O God who created me, in your love recreate me.
O Love, who redeemed me,
fill up in me whatever part of your love
has fallen into neglect within me.
O Love, O God, who first loved me,
grant that with my whole heart,
and with my whole soul,
and with my whole strength,
I may love you.
