“7 And he preached, saying, ‘After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.’” ~ Mark 1:7-8
During John’s ministry he preached that the Messiah would come, someone who he wasn’t even worthy to untie his sandals. Rejoice, for the Messiah has come and His name is Jesus. He saw you worthy enough that you didn’t have to stoop down and untie His sandals, but He stoop down and untie yours. Jesus saw you worthy enough to not only take your unbearable load that you carry around but to also give you His.
So rejoice. Have peace today on Palm Sunday. For the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world has come. He has given us life and life more abundantly. He has given us hope and a future. He has defeated death and the grave. And if you go to Him, He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit, healing every disease, plague, pain, trauma, grief, anger, disappointment that you have, if you let Him. So don’t be discouraged, your King has come and is waiting for you!
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Run To The King!
