Seen Jesus?

The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. (John 12:21 KJV)

Did you see Jesus last week? I know He was up at the church working hard putting together the coming conference, working for a revival within the congregation.

Did you see Jesus last week? I know He was in Sunday School, helping teachers bring the Bible to us. You could tell He believed what was said -- most of the words were quotes direct from Him!

Did you see Jesus last week? He was in the pulpit, you know, speaking His words to us, admonishing us to accept Him as our Lord and Savior. Promising that He loves us eternally, telling us of the heavenly home awaiting those who follow Him. Warning us of the eternal loss should He be denied.

Did you see Jesus last week? He was at the hospital visiting the sick. He prayed with them, and the church members visiting with them. He comforted them and told them He was with them, always. Some will come home to us and praise Him, while others will go home with Him to celebrating angels.

Did you see Jesus last week? He was in a Christian home, in fellowship with the family that loves and serves Him, sharing with them their time with each other.

Did you see Jesus last week? Was He the one you saw kneeling in prayer for the lost? Was He the one you saw comforting, giving a hug to one in need? Was He the one you saw delivering Meals on Wheels to the shut in? Was He the one you saw visiting the new neighbor, welcoming and inviting them to church? Was He the one...

Perhaps it was actually you!

John 20:21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.


2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

How wonderful that He sends us, even as He was sent. And, as a mirror, we reflect Him in His glory!! Where will you see/be Jesus this week?
