As they (John’s disciples) went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind? Why then did you go out? To see a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those who wear soft raiment as in kings’ houses. Why then did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.” Matthew 11:7 – 9
Lord, John was a man that had a lot of disciples. It was those disciples that came to You to find out if You were for real. John had sent them to question You. Now that they had left You turned to talk with the crowd about John and those that had followed him.
Lord we have all this history about You. They didn’t have what we have today and yet they loved You and followed You.
Thank You for opening our eyes of understanding and showing us Your truths. Humbly I bow and thank You.
Thank You Lord.
