One day Jesus met Philip and said to him, "I want you to follow Me."   Philip was so pleased and so he went and found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the One that Moses wrote about and His name is Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

"Nazareth!  H'm, can anything good come out of Nazareth?" asked Nathanael.  "Why don't you come and see," replied Philip.  And so the two friends went and searched for Jesus.  When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching He said, "Here is a true man of Israel in whom there are no lies."

Nathanael was very surprised and gasped, "How do you know me?"  Jesus smiled as He answered, "I saw you while you were still sitting under the fig tree before Philip called you."  Nathanael could not believe his ears and exclaimed, "Teacher, You are the Son of God and You are the King of Israel." Nathanael could not understand how Jesus could have seen him many kilometers away.  But, Jesus did see him and wanted Nathanael to come to love Him as his Saviour.  And Jesus always sees every girl and boy that loves Him and has asked Jesus into their hearts as their Saviour.

When you are away from your parents at camp or on a hike, Jesus is with you.  You can't see Jesus, but He is watching over you.  When you are riding in the car, working at school, or playing outside, Jesus is with you and He is watching over you, working in your life and guiding you in God's ways.

When you go to sleep at night and it is dark in your room, Jesus is with you, and He is watching over you and protecting you.  So you don't have to be afraid.  Jesus does not sleep and He said, "I am with you always!"  And so when you wake up in the morning, Jesus is still with you and is still watching over you!

We love Jesus and He loves each one of us very dearly.  Jesus said, "I will never leave you, nor forsake you."  Let's remember every morning that we are God's children and remind ourselves, "Jesus always sees me!"

God bless.
