John 1:50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”
I can imagine how Nathanael must have felt when Jesus told him he was sitting under a fig tree before Philip called him.
What would you say to someone who knew exactly where you were before they met you? I can imagine Nathanael finding a quiet spot to do his prayers or to have a quiet moment with God; and then being told by this person that is exactly where he was!
God knows us, all about us, yet He does not force us to do things; instead He waits patiently for us to make the right decisions in our lives!
