Jesus has always been a guide and protector for His disciples. In today's Gospel, He continues to care for them through His intercessory prayer. This prayer is a natural extension of the many ways He has served them since they first began to follow Him. In the same way, when we pray for others, we show our care for them and serve them as Jesus did.
Jesus taught us the value of intercessory prayer by praying for His disciples. Since then, praying for others has been an integral part of the Church's prayer life. Paul also mentions prayers for his churches and asks his people to pray for him. This form of prayer has a long history in the Jewish tradition. Through the prayer of intercession, we express our unity and connection with others in Christ.
