John 1:43-46 …from Nazareth


On the following day Andrew (?) decided to go away to Galilee and find Philip.

Jesus said to him, ‘Follow me.’ Philip was from Bethsaida, the village of Andrew and Peter.

Phillip found Nathanael and said to him ‘We have found the one whom Moses (in the Law) and the prophets wrote about: Jesus, the son of Joseph, from Nazareth.’ And Nathanael said to him: ‘From Nazareth! Can there be anything good from there?’ Philip replied ‘Come and see.’

O Love, O God who created me, in your love recreate me.
O Love, who redeemed me,
fill up in me whatever part of your love
has fallen into neglect within me.
O Love, O God, who first loved me,
grant that with my whole heart,
and with my whole soul,
and with my whole strength,
I may love you.

Gertrude the Great
