We want to see Jesus

Wednesday April 5th, John 12: 20 There were some Greeks in town who had come up to worship at the Feast. 21 They approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee: "Sir, we want to see Jesus. The Greeks referred not just to those from Greece, but to all from outside the Jewish faith. This new thing that Jesus was ushering into the world, it is not just for a few, it is not just for the chosen, it is not just for those who have the correct knowledge or understanding, it is for all. It is that all inclusive love that draws them in. They will find out what being a part of the community of God entails soon enough. For now they want to see Jesus. Our job as the children of God is to help people see Jesus, they will find out soon enough and in their own way what that means for them.
