BIBLE PASSAGE — Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and you still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if you do not, then believe me because of the works themselves.

Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.

”If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you.

    LOL Not many comic strips actually make me laugh & think deep thoughts at the same time. I LOVE A.D. Wednesday’s wouldn’t be the same without you!

    Really like this one. So true: we all think of all the things we would ask God for/about… But I think that when we really see God face-to-face, that will become enough, as we will be full of His grace and love. Good one!

    @Jennifer: It’s said that if love is the longing then joy is the fulfillment. As Pete Townsend once said in concert (really) “One day we’ll fly!”
