John 1:43-51
You are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel. +
Jesus decided to go to Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, “Follow me.” Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the town of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the law, and also the prophets, Jesus, son of Joseph, from Nazareth.” But Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.” Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, “Here is a true child of Israel. There is no duplicity in him.” Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.” Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this.” And he said to him, “Amen, amen, I say to you, you will see the sky opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
Reflection
Nathaneal also known as Bartholomew is a disciples. At first he had doubt because Christ from Nazereth. Nazareth is supposed to be a small but when Christ said i saw you under the fig tree he showed reverence . Yestetday Simon Peter believe because he saw what Christ did while Nathaneal believed because he heard what Christ said. How strong is our believe because of our faith?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus as we journey to your kingdom may the Holy Spirit continue to guide us to put our believe in you.
Amen
