Come and See

"Come and see," said Philip. (John 1:46)

After church yesterday, we headed to the farm for an afternoon of fishing, football, and family fun. I marked the woods with "butterflies" leading to a surprise at the end of the trail, then coaxed the boys, "Come and see!"

In the Gospel of John, Jesus called Philip of Bethsaida to follow Him. Philip then found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph!"

"Nazareth!" Nathanael replied. "Can anything good come from there?"

"Come and see!" Philip urged.

This week, church families around the world will celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Savior and King. Beloved, who will you invite to "come and see?"
