Philip prayed of Jesus:
LORD, show us the Father,
and we will be satisfied,
contented, fulfilled,
gratified.
And The Way of the Father,
The Truth of the Father, The Life
of the Father replied:
I AM with you,
and you do not know?
You pray for Me to show
you the Father but can you not see?
I AM in the Father
and the Father in Me.
