A prayer

John 17:25-26 NASB
"O righteous Father, although the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me; and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."

How great is the love of the Father for us that the Son would pray such a thing for us. God listens to the righteous so then those who are born again according to the Spirit have this promise. We know that He came from the Father. So he will make known the Father's name to us and the love of the Father will be in us.
They will know us by the love we have for one another it says in 1 John, it will be because our love will not be as the world loves with its conditions. The love is patient and kind it does not boast or demand its own way, love bears all things,  love never fails.
God is faithful, he will do it.
