"Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you for so long a time and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?" John 14:9
Philip's eyes were preventing him to see what Jesus was saying? Jesus was right in front of him, he could not see the Father with his eyes yet he could. Was Jesus teaching us about the Trinity? "The Father and I are one." John 10:30 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1. In our own world are we blinded to the truth because we can not see with the minds eye? I spent a little time reflecting upon past events this morning, even back to childhood. At the time I couldn't see God but now looking back I know He was there even in the unpleasant events. Jesus asks us to look past the physical reality and see what is really going on.
What is God saying to me: What the eyes cannot see, the spirit can comprehend.
Dear Father, I struggle to understand the Trinity, I know You go beyond all understanding, help me see what I can not see. Open up the doors of the past and unlock the hidden gems that are meant to glorify You and bring light into my world. Thank You Father for answered prayers, for strengthened relationships and for a deeper love for You. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
