1 After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so he can give glory back to you. 2 For you have given him authority over everyone. He gives eternal life to each one you have given him. 3 And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth. 4 I brought glory to you here on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. 5 Now, Father, bring me into the glory we shared before the world began.

This is an interesting interaction between God the Father and God the Son. Jesus gives eternal life to everyone that knows Jesus Christ and the only one true God. I wonder what the glory of heaven will be like? Jesus was getting ready to be crucified and the moment he died the veil was torn and we were given direct access to God our father. We no longer have to go through the priest or be afraid of being struck dead on contact with God. This is a beautiful thing!!
