Grace for your spirit June 18, 2015

Grace for your spirit
Truly, I say to you, among those born of woman there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.  Matthew 11:11

Jesus called John the Baptist the greatest because his focus on his mission to prepare that way for Jesus, and his unwavering humility in serving others.  Can we really be greater than he?  The way is not climbing up the ladder of success, but climbing down the ladder.  When we humble ourselves to accept Jesus, and humble ourselves to be servants of all, we find our victory at the bottom of the ladder.  The greatest title in His Kingdom, is servant.
