Mark 1:4



“John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.”
                Now, as we know – John wasn’t baptizing in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit here – signifying the death, burial and resurrection. He was baptizing in order for the people to outwardly show that they had changed and were done with their old sins. The people were outwardly stating that they were moving on with that life.
                There are many things that I hold on to, that I need to move on with – and stop. But for some reason, this flesh is unable to do it on it’s own.
                Lord, please give me the strength to always do what I must, instead of falling time and time again.
