Jesus answered, "Don't you know Me, Philip, even after I have been among you for such a long time? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say show us the Father?
John 14:9
The night before Jesus went to the cross, some of His disciples revealed that they didn't really know Him. Jesus wondered how He could be around them so long and yet they had missed the point that Jesus was God in the flesh. When we come to truly know Him, we will love Him, serve Him, share Him. Our opportunity to effectively love, serve, and share, fail when we don't ever truly know Him. How long do we have to be around Him before we come to truly know Him? That will directly depend on how much we are really paying attention. Let's get into the Word, find Him, and know Him. Then the serving and sharing will follow.
