Righteous John the Baptist

Matthew 3

Inspired thots

I am shamed when I read of John the Baptist in this chapter. He is faithful and righteous in doing God's will; HE REALLY PREPARES THE WAY OF THE LORD FOR JESUS...

But today, man... I.... tend to ask God to prepare the way for ME.... always scared of stepping out for the Lord... always asking for God's mercy and grace; not bold; not sure of God's greatness; not confident of His love to carry me through.  Still thinking of SELF rather than God... that is why it reflects in my prayers...

"Lord, Bless Me!"

instead of "LORD, thy will be done!"

Perhaps step by step... I will release more of self; LESS of Me and MORE of Christ.
