I love this scene because it’s reminding me that God is always listening even when we don’t feel like he is listening

[VeronicaReveles]

I named my son Nathanael. My son passed away from cardiac arrest two years ago at the age of 16. When I saw this scene it gave me the strength i need and knowing God will never leave me in the midst of the storm. 🙏🏻😔

A lot of people don’t like this show. I like it because it kept me focused on the word. It kept my thoughts pure. It allowed me to look up Bible verses for accuracy. It tested how much I knew about the Bible. It encouraged me to read the Bible more… I would watch this sometimes just to give me some strength. I don’t have any friends or family. All I have is GOD OUR FATHER. Some times I think I’m not doing enough for his kingdom…

This scene means so much to me. I can't express how much this scene touched me

[kayreansimpson]

Always come back to this as a reminder he's faithful and I need to be patient while learning to trust His Words... To feel unseen by those we want to be seen by when it's being seen by Him that matters

It's really incredible how Jesus calls him "a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit." That's incredibly high praise from God.

[Jason-uqhw]

I love this so much. He didn’t say “God saw you”. He said “I saw you”. Jesus, my Lord and my God!

[brianmabasa]

As soon as Jesus said "I didnt turn my face from you". Goosebumps! Sheesh! Thats God..

[joshuaparsons]

I didnt always stick with god but he always stuck with me. Im now 100% devoted to jesus and the father. I am a sinful man butni ask and pray for forgiveness. God has never turned away from me! AMEN!

[tysonlittlefield]

This is so powerful. I love how realistic it is too in that our prayers are never answered in the time and way we expected

[garyrobinson]

Think it's my favorite episode of any show ever.
I've watched it so many times.
They did it brilliantly.

[merenimchns]

Like Nathanael we often doubt God for not answering but i tell you he never forsaken us and he is always watching us

[phantom_knight]

I can’t articulate how much this scene means to me. Jesus is always so close to us. Life isn’t always easy, but when it’s the hardest he’s there to comfort us. He’ll never turn his face from us. Can I get an Amen?!

[Awakeningspirit]

Considering I watched this show after I felt God totally abandoned me during an injury I had literally after praying, "I saw you under the fig tree" was a very powerful moment for me. I'll also note, while I didn't feel God when I was alone in the dark in the woods with my bike nor in the ER, I actually didn't break any bones and was not truly held back... my life trajectory continued and true good things started coming after that injury. He didn't hide His face. He's always there.

[belleisleguy]

That instant when Nathanael recognizes the Messiah, that look in the eyes, it hits me every time.

[jadedrac]

I was crying under a tree once crying out to God like this and God reminded of this verse. Within that very week I had a woman lay hands on me and quote this very verse to me. God is amazing!

[darkmaster]

Coincidently I was under a tree watching this video at a park. Didn't realize until I looked up.

[jessa]

KING OF KING, LORD OF LORD, HEAR MY VOICE LORD. I NEED YOU RIGHT NOW. 😭 IN JESUS NAME.🙏😭 YOU ARE THE ONLY HOPE I HAVE.😭

[yak]

When I was at my lowest he picked me up and brought me out of the darkness. He sees your struggle and your pain he doesn’t turn away from you. May God bless you all 🙏

[LessOfMe]

One little nuance that I love about this scene (great acting on the part of the actor playing Nathaniel) is when Jesus touches him and he's just like "My LORD in the flesh just TOUCHED ME."
Masterful and well written scene.
