So Jesus defended himself: ‘Truly, truly I say to you the Son can do nothing on his own authority but only what he sees the Father is doing.

For whatever he has done – these things the Son does in the same way.

For the Father loves the Son and he shows him everything which he does and he will show him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.

For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them live, so also the Son will make live whomever he wishes to live.

For in fact the Father does not judge anyone but he gives all judgements to the Son so that everyone will honour the Son as they honour the Father.

The one who does not honour the Son does not honour the Father who sent him.’

Teach us, good Lord,
to serve thee as thou deservest;
to give and not to count the cost;
to fight and not to heed the wounds;
to toil and not to seek for rest;
to labour and not to ask for any reward,
save that of knowing that we do thy will,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen

St Ignatius
