They (priests and Levites) asked him, (John) “Then why are you baptizing. If you are neither the Christ, or Elijah, nor the prophet?” John answered them, “I baptize with water; but among you stands one whom you do not know, even He who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.” John 1:25 – 27
Lord once again we see John’s humility. He certainly has a lot to teach us. He could have ‘tooted his own horn’ so to speak but he pointed everyone to You. Of course they had no idea who he was pointing to because they did not accept You as the messiah.
Thank You Lord for those that are humble and only want to bring glory to Your name.
Thank You for working in our lives to allow us to become more and more like You.
Thank You for the joy in serving You and what a great example John was of that Lord.
Thank You Lord.
