Wait A Second,I Am KNOWN Jn1:48 s4e55

Jesus KNOWS US first.  However, this is always a SURPRISE to us.  We think that our first thoughts of Him coincide with His first thoughts of us.  Yes we are that narcissistic.

Nathaniel gets this revelation today as Jesus says, "I already saw you.  I heard you under the fig tree as you were talking to me earlier in prayer." Nathaniel has this meta-moment in realization.  Perhaps he was praying that the Lord would reveal Himself, or make Himself known. 

Jesus knows our warts, our smell, our words and soberingly, our HISTORY.  And yet, here He comes to engage us.  Not that we should be staying the same.  As John the Baptist charges, there will hopefully be some FRUIT in keeping with repentance and interaction of Jesus. 

This may be your first day with Jesus.  It is NOT His first day with you.  Thank you for listening. Share please bewithme.us.  Sign up at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Google Podcasts or 35 other sites.
