Sight

Read John 1.35-39

“.. ‘Come,’ He replied, ‘and you will see’ ..”  (John 1.39)

The call of Jesus is simple and clear. ‘Come,’ He exhorts, ‘and you will see.’ Not the other way round. If faith comes by hearing, ‘sight’ comes by trusting. Taking the first step of faith isn’t a leap in the dark, but it is a leap into the light!

Have you been holding off trusting in Jesus until you see things more clearly?

The two disciples spent the day with Jesus: how might you spend more time with Jesus?

Prayer: How wonderful, my Lord Jesus, to learn that You see my every tentative step of faith and that You’re always so quick to serve us in our weakness.
