But Nathaniel said to him, “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
It is Philip who invites Nathaniel to “come and see” you, my Jesus. Skeptical at first, he follows his friend, and as soon as you speak to him, he is convinced.
Who first invited me to come and see? I was baptized as an infant and told about you from childhood, but when did I first experience you for myself? You, Father, sent many to guide me. You, Spirit, quelled my doubts. And you, my Savior, look at me and know my heart. I know you because you know who I am and where I am from. Help me to follow you to the end, as Nathaniel did.
