Many people who have never seen Jesus have received and share in God\u2019s grace. But once you have seen Him, you can never be the same. Other things will not have the appeal they did before.<\/section>\n<p>You should always recognize the difference between what you see Jesus to be and what He has done for you. If you see only what He has done for you, your God is not big enough. But if you have had a vision, seeing Jesus as He really is, experiences can come and go, yet you will endure \u201cas seeing Him who is invisible\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Hebrews+11:27\">Hebrews 11:27<\/a>). The man who was blind from birth did not know who Jesus was until Christ appeared and revealed Himself to him (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=John+9\">John 9<\/a>). Jesus appears to those for whom He has done something, but we cannot order or predict when He will come. He may appear suddenly, at any turn. Then you can exclaim, \u201cNow I see Him!\u201d (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=John+9:25\">John 9:25<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Jesus must appear to you and to your friend individually; no one can see Jesus with your eyes. And division takes place when one has seen Him and the other has not. You cannot bring your friend to the point of seeing; God must do it. Have you seen Jesus? If so, you will want others to see Him too. \u201cAnd they went and told it to the rest, but they did not believe them either\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Mark+16:13\">Mark 16:13<\/a>). When you see Him, you must tell, even if they don\u2019t believe.<\/p>\n<p>O could I tell, you surely would believe it! O could I only say what I have seen! How should I tell or how can you receive it, How, till He bringeth you where I have been?<\/p>\n<p>__________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>April, 9, 2013<\/p>\n<p>Journal Entry for Today-JDV<\/p>\n<p>Jesus, when I have looked for You inside of certain kinds of blessings or events, it seems I am disappointed. When I expect to see you I do not. But it seems when I look for you in everything and every event, You are there. I cannot explain it.<\/p>\n<p>And God says\u2026\u201d<i>You cannot put God into a place or time, and pull Him out when you are in need or have time for worship. Seek first the Kingdom of God, which is Jesus. When you look for Me in all things, all day, every day, I am there. Seek Me first, delight yourself in Me and I am there. I am there because you put Me first and want to see Me in all things, not just some religious times, or times when it occurs to you.
