Preparing the Way for the Lord #gospel #pray #Jesus #prayer #family #fyp #gospelofthelord

In the gospel of John 1:19–28, John the Baptist humbly recognizes that he is not the Messiah but the one sent to prepare the way. His life points entirely to Christ, reminding us that true greatness is found in knowing who we are before God and directing others toward Jesus. This passage invites us to live with humility and purpose, becoming witnesses who help make room for the Lord in the hearts of others. Lord God, you called John the Baptist to prepare the way for your Son through humility and faithful witness. Help us to follow his example — to seek your will above our own and to lead others toward Christ by our words and actions. Give us the grace to live with gratitude, clarity, and courage. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
