Lectio Divina – Day 3
Day 3 – John 1:19-28
He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Christ.” ~ v.20
“I am the voice of one calling in the desert, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’ “ ~ v.23b
I am not the Christ.
I am not the Maker of Heaven and of Earth.
I am not the Ruler of every creature here below.
I am not the Renewer, the Restorer, or the Redeemer.
I am not the Christ.I am just a voice.
I am a voice that sounds in the emptiness.
I am the sound that brings words of repentance, forgiveness, and grace.
I am just a voice.I am saved. He is the Savior.
He made all of the above and I dwell below.
I can not save, but I can prepare the way.
He is the Savior, I am saved.
