John3:30-31
"He must increase, but I must decrease. He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all."
John the Baptist’s proclamation about Jesus was profound. He recognised and openly declared who Jesus truly is, understanding that Jesus must increase while he himself must decrease. In these words, John showed true humility, willingly stepping aside so that Christ could be exalted. His life reminds us that our purpose is not to draw attention to ourselves, but to point others to Jesus and give Him all the glory. Let go of pride if we want Jesus to increase in us.
