"If you want to know who Christ is come and see."

Mark 1:16-18

 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become afishers of men.
 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

John 1:38-39

Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

  • Determine what fills your nets.  Are everyday challenges such as time constraints, demands from work or home, or feelings of inadequacy or fear holding you back from developing a relationship with Christ?
  • Today try to listen for the quiet invitations from the Lord to come and see.
The invitation to "come and see" the Savior is extended to each of us.  We can accept that invitation by repenting, being baptized, keeping our baptismal covenants, and withstanding temptation.
