I love the posture of John the Baptist in this first chapter. "Look", "Look". John's posture is pointing away from himself and pointing people to Jesus. I think this is a great posture for ministry. I think this is a great posture for us serving kids here at Jim Elliot. "Look, it is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" Always pointing away from ourselves and pointing students to Jesus!

I think if we really look at the Creator of the universe, loving us so much that He condescended to come to this earth as a human baby, living among us sinners, loving us so much that He would kneel and wash His disciples feet, loving us so much He would bear our sins silently willfully, so we could be made perfect and live with Him forever. WOW!!!!!!!!! So hard to comprehend.
