Have I seen Jesus? How can I see Him? How can I be like Him? Those are the questions that a person who seeks God may ask.
From human perspective, we can't see God physically. It is impossible for a person to believe someone who doesn't exist. Or even get to be in a relationship without experiencing or encountering the person.
So, it is a wonderful thought to think about that a person who accepts God declares to have a relationship with Him without even seeing Him Himself! How's that possible?
Seeing Jesus is a personal experience. A person can only see God who is spirit (John 4:24) through spirit eyes not the physical ones. Seeing Jesus is like seeing God.
In my own personal experience, I see God when I feel love and see people loving each other. Do you know why? Because God is Love (1 John 4:8). So when I love, I become like Him because I copy His character. And when I do it, God manifests Himself through me (Ephesians 5:1).
God said that He reveals Himself through His creation (Romans 1:20). And He also said that whatever we do to those people who are in need, we do it for God (Matthew 25:45).
Next time you encounter someone who is difficult to understand, think about this message. That person needs to be loved just as how God loves you. And when you do, you do it for God. You directly love Him.
