“When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, ‘Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.’  ‘How do you know me?’ Nathanael asked.  Jesus answered, ‘I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.’”  John 1:47-48

Dear Jesus, You see all our thoughts and all our personal spiritual pursuits.  You knew Nathaniel was a man of integrity who diligently searched for your Father.  You revealed to him that you knew his heart.  He immediately trusted you.  When I think about you knowing all my thoughts and that you still want me, it makes me trust you too.  Help me overcome my crazy self-made ideas.  Teach me the Scriptures that apply to my thinking.  You see where the soft spots are.  Open my heart to see and believe what you say about those issues.  Change me by coming to see me in my individual spiritual journey and bring me to your safe place.  Amen.

Jesus knows every question and false idea you have.  Let him teach you the way out of the fog of confusion.
