Can You See Me Now?

In John chapter  12 starting in verse    the Gospel writer is talking about certain Greeks that came and  desired to "see" Jesus. Jesus hears the man's request but yet doesn't answer him directly because the only way to see Jesus is to understand why he came. The only way to see Jesus is to realize that his death was for our benefit. The only way to see Jesus is to understand how by his death God was glorified and how by our life God is glorified.  Jesus came to be lifted up so that all people might be drawn to him. He did not come to glorify a pastor or a priest or a leader in religion but came so that we might have direct access. So... are you taking advantage of that direct access? Are you living a life that glorifies God? Will you "see" Jesus?
