—Mark 1:1-8
by: Jody Mclean.
The humble nature of John in this passage is an attitude that we must take on. He recognized that although he was doing God's work and was proclaiming the message of Jesus Christ, he was still limited. He knew that it was only the power of the Holy Spirit that could really change a person's life. We need to remember that no one can be saved by our works-they must accept Jesus. Remember, it is only by God's grace that we even have a message to spread to others.
