Gospel
John 1:47-51
You will see heaven laid open, and the Son of Man
When Jesus saw Nathanael coming he said of him, ‘There is an Israelite who deserves the name, incapable of deceit.’ ‘How do you know me?’ said Nathanael. ‘Before Philip came to call you,’ said Jesus ‘I saw you under the fig tree.’ Nathanael answered, ‘Rabbi, you are the Son of God, you are the King of Israel.’ Jesus replied, ‘You believe that just because I said: I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.’ And then he added ‘I tell you most solemnly, you will see heaven laid open and, above the Son of Man, the angels of God ascending and descending.’
Reflection
The reading is about God's friendship. When Christ said I saw you under the fig tree Nathanael said indeed you are son of God. This reading shows how if Christ revealed himself to us means he want to have relationship with us. The question is how sincere are we in accepting the relationship
Let us pray.
Lord Jesus you have revealed to us through your word you want to have relationship with us. May we remain in relationship with you forever and ever .
Amen
