"We would see Jesus!" John 12:21

Curiosity pants to see . . .
great men,
remarkable places,
and uncommon things. 

But grace in the heart—pants to see Jesus!

The first object we wish to see when regenerated, is Jesus! 

And the last we shall wish to see when leaving the world, is Jesus!

We want to see Jesus, when we are . . . .
in sorrow—to cheer us;
in darkness—to illumine us;
in trouble—to deliver us;
in prosperity—to keep us;
in sickness—to comfort us; and
in death—to enable us to triumph. 

We would see . . .
Jesus in the manger,
Jesus in the busy crowd, 
Jesus by the grave of Lazarus,
Jesus in Gethsemane's garden,
Jesus hanging on Golgotha's cruel tree,
Jesus ascending from Olivet,
Jesus interceding for us before His Father, 
Jesus coming again in glory,
Jesus sitting on His throne in heavenly splendour! 

Friend, have you ever seen Jesus?
