Days 20 and 21 were grace days so I just finished reading the first part of the Gospel of John for day 22.  I know I sound like a broken record but I was blown away by reading John.  The passion of Jesus is clearly seen in the first 10 chapters.  Here’s a verse that jumped out at me early on…

But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn! This is not a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan—this rebirth comes from God.  John 1:12-13 (NLT)

I also loved this statement from John the Baptist…

He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less.  John 3:30 (NLT)

I think John the Baptist represents a lot of what every minister of the Gospel is and should be.
