Devotional for Wednesday Feb 25, 2009:
Come and See
|
Nathanael said to Philip,
"Can anything good come from Nazareth?"
Philip answered, "Come and see"
John 1:46
Nathanael's question still lingers, even tow thousand years later... Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Come and see.
Come and see the changed lives:
the alcoholic now dry,
the embittered now joyful,
the shamed now forgiven...
marriage rebuilt, the orphans embraced,
the imprisoned inspired....
Come and see the pierced hand of God touch the most common heart, wipe the tear from the wrinkled face, and forgive the ugliest sin.
Come and see. He avoids no seeker. He ignores no probe. He fears no search. Come and see.
A Gentle Thunder
