That They May Know Him
📖“He who has seen Me has seen the Father…” —John 14:9 (NKJV)
What comes to your mind when you think about God?
For many, the answer has been shaped by pain, religion, or silence. Some picture a distant Judge. Others imagine a soft-spoken grandfather in the clouds. But Jesus shattered every wrong idea.
He said: If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father.
Jesus is the exact representation of God’s nature. He’s not just a messenger—He’s the revelation of who God is. He healed, corrected, wept, embraced, forgave, and prayed. Everything He did reflected the Father’s heart.
This means that when you see Jesus welcoming sinners, washing feet, or driving out hypocrisy—you’re seeing God. The God who knows you, loves you, and came for you.
The closer you get to Jesus, the clearer the Father becomes.
Reflection Questions:
- What false views of God do I need to let go of?
- What does Jesus show me about the Father’s character?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You for revealing the Father to me. I want to see God as You revealed Him—not as the world distorts Him. Open my heart to know Him more truly and love Him more deeply. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
