John 14:6-14

Philip said, ‘Lord, let us see the Father and then we shall be satisfied.’

‘Have I been with you all this time, Philip,’ said Jesus to him ‘and you still do not know me?

There are some people who just get you. They know your humor, your worried face, your scared laugh. These are the people in your life when it is all said and done will come up to you and say “you wanna talk about it?” Thank you if you are this person to someone.

Phillip and the disciples were sometimes that kind of a friend. They knew Jesus but sometimes they totally did not get him. “ I have been with you all this time…” The early church sometimes also felt abandoned. They somehow lost touch with the Lord but he assures them of his abiding presence.

Tell me this, what are your little reminders that he is with you? Tell me about your last God wink.
