07/22 John 3:23-26
At this time John the Baptist was baptizing at Aenon, near Salim, because there was plenty of water there and people kept coming to him for baptism. 24 This was before John was put into prison. 25 At that time a certain Jew began an argument with John’s disciples over ceremonial cleansing. 26 John’s disciples came to him and said, “Teacher, the man you met on the other side of the Jordan River, the one you said was the Messiah, is also baptizing people. And everybody is going over there instead of coming here to us.”
CALL
We each have a call as followers of Jesus and members of the family of God. We don’t do our work based on what others are doing but instead it is based on what the Father has called us to do. Do what you can do. Don’t worry about what others do or what the value of what you do is. Fulfill your call and do your work and that is what the Lord will measure in your life.
