And though he (Herod) wanted to put him (John the Baptist) to death he feared the people, because they held him to be a prophet. Matthew 14:5
Lord our lives don’t always turn out the way we hope they would. John was a ‘good guy.’ He was helping others. He was trying to help not hinder when he told Herod it was not lawful for him to have his brother Philip’s wife. That statement caused him to be put into prison.
Thank You Lord that You never forget about us no matter where we are or what circumstances we are in.
You were with John helping him to go through the prison experience. Fun! No not fun…..but You were with him to bring him comfort and help him through the tuff time just as You help us through the tuff times we have today.
Thank You for ALWAYS being with us. We need You Lord. We want You and You are always there.
Thank You Lord.
