Well OBW is right: doesn't matter how much "Christ" you pull out of the text. Of itself, it means nothing. Words without actions. At the same time, acting without seeing Jesus going before is difficult at best. He isn't called the "Captain" for nothing. But OBW was presenting the necessary corollary to my "seeing Jesus in the text". It needed to be put out there.

Anyway, I just told God that I wanted to see. So I began to see. (Emphasis on 'began'). Then, when WL said there was nothing to see in the text I got a little miffed. But it's important not to become obsessed, and over-compensate for someone else's perceived lack. That's not our calling. Not why we're here.
