Can You See the Invisible God? - "THE ONE WHO HAS EXPLAINED HIM"

 A  mother of two visually impaired children says:  "Speech is one of the most important aspects of their learning.  Tell them everything you see and hear, [and] be prepared to give a running commentary. You are their eyes." Likewise, although "no man had seen God at any time," God's Son, Jesus,  "who is at the Father's side is the one who has explained Him." (John 1:18) As God's first creation and only-begotten Son, Jesus became our "eyes"  for peering into the heavens.  He is the best source of information about the invisible God.

Note a few of the things that Jesus, who spent aeons with his Father, explained about God:

. God works tirelessly: "My Father  has kept working until now." - JOHN 5:17.

. God knows our needs: "Your Father knows what you need even before you ask him." - MATTHEW 6:8.

. God graciously provides for us:  "Your Father who is in the heavens . . . makes his sun rise on both the wicked and the good and makes it rain on both the righteous and the  unrighteous." - MATTHEW 5:45. 

. God values us individually:  "Two sparrows sell for a coin of small value, do they not? Yet, not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's knowledge.  But even the hairs of your head are  all .  numbered.  So have no fear; you are worth more than many sparrows." - MATTHEW 10:29-31.
