Matthew 3 journal
John talked about the result of not repenting as experiencing unquenchable fire. It reminds me of the times I hold a grudge against a person. It is like an unquenchable fire burns away my energy. God please give me a heart that easily forgives and trusts you. I want to experience your life and share it with others.
John consents to Jesus’ request for baptism even when he understood that he was the one who needed to be baptized. I pray that I will have a submissive attitude towards God even when I don’t understand his way of thinking. As a result John got to see the Spirit of God descend upon Jesus. It’s always easier to see God when we are looking in the direction he is leading us, instead of the opposite direction or the rear view mirror.
God says to everyone, “This is my son, whom I am well pleased.” I long to hear those words from my God.
