That they may become ONE

THAT THEY MAY BECOME ONE: NJD DERBYSHIRE 04/09/05



Inspiration behind: friendship…. God desires to be known, to be felt, to be enjoyed… that we may reflect Him in each other … by becoming one. In heart, in mind and mostly in love.


Could this be the key of your desire… our desire to be one
Could this be an answer to the heart of man
Could this be the glorious mandate, once lost to sin,
Could this be the answer to silent questions… often asked.
Could this be the Emancipator, the liberation that we long for

That they may become one

Could this be the mirror He beholds
Could this be substance of mercy
Could this be a glory of a ransomed heart
Could we be living His dream.

That they may become one


Is it so intense in meaning,
Is it so strong in its impact
Is it so clean… in its motive
Is it so precious that one will fight death to redeem it.


That they may become one



Could this be the hope of His glory
Could this be what will draw all men unto Him
Is this the communicator of His oracle
Is this the finger print of his love
Is this the tapestry of his design…

Is this what JESUS meant when he prayed… That they may become one



John 17v 21
“that all of them may be one, father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me”
