Many of us want to know what God is like? We think that if we could just get a handle on God, then it would make our faith a little easier and we would be much more committed to the cause.
Philip was having a conversation with Jesus about some important matters, when Jesus answered: “Don’t you
know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time?
Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you
say, ‘Show us the Father’? (John 14:9)
For me, this reveals a key truth. If we want to know what God is like, then we can begin by reading about Jesus. The life, character, words and person of Jesus will give us the clearest image of the Eternal God. Of course we can start by opening up a Bible and starting in the Gospels - that is the best place to begin.
Let us stop looking for signs of God that may not appear and instead study the ones that are right in front of us.
