How Do You Know Me?

John 1:48-51 
48 Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” 50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” 51 And He said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”

Jesus knows us before we know Him.  But even that is small compared to who Jesus is and what He did for us, coming down from heaven with angels ministering as He suffered, died, and arose victorious over Heath and hell.  But we still look past His work to His knowing and calling us before we saw Him.  He draws us and first saw us in sovereign grace and mercy.
