It Is Sufficient?

Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”  John 14:8

One wants to ask dear Philip if it would really be sufficient for him. We may fall into that trap as well. If one more miracle would be sufficient for faith, would it be faith? If one more gospel  was discovered buried in a cave near the Dead Sea, would that be enough for you to believe? If Jesus were to meet me like He did Paul outside Damascus, would that do it for my faith to be strong and mighty? When we see that Philip had been with John the Baptist and then following Jesus for years by this time, we see the trap of that 'just one more sign' sufficiency. Jesus even notes the length of Philip's training in faith next in the scriptures when He says, "Have I been with you so long..." For us these many years later, we have the assurance of one final blessing:

Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.  John 20:29

Be blessed in Christ our Lord,
