COME AND SEE
John 1:37-39 (KJV)
"37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour." ...
Look at this mind, acute and aware of His surroundings; nothing in His space is unnoticed in detail. Jesus, Son of man, King of angels is not only aware, He is also available, approachable, and willing to engage and be engaged.
"What seek ye?" He brings their awareness into His space and invites their interest. They asked for more space when they asked where He was staying. Was He willing to open that space? He answers, "Come and see."
Wow! to spend the afternoon with Jesus in His private quarters seems almost unthinkable; yet, this is Him in the very core of His being. What stronger statement could He have made than to have become flesh and dwell among us. He truly is not to high that He cannot be touched by the feelings of our infirmities. "Not to high?" He sets in a heavenly place that is far beyond this world and He still calls unto us, "Come and see." Jesus, Son of man, King of angels has reserved a seat for us all. He has made the invitation for us to sit in this heavenly place with Him. "Come and see."
