And he kept trying to see him. (From Luke 9:7-9)
Herod kept trying to see Jesus so he could see what the fuss was all about and to learn who Jesus really was. How about us? Do we keep trying to see Jesus in daily prayer? In church every Sunday? In the eyes of the sick, poor, homeless, and the addicted? In the one you disagree with politically? In the one who worships differently? In the one who has a different skin color or sexual orientation? In the one who wants to argue about everything on social media? In our own hearts? We need to keep trying to see him because we need him and the world needs him and because he is in us ALL! Search for Jesus! See Jesus! Love Jesus! Be loved by Jesus! Amen!
