John 3:30

"He must increase, I must decrease."

When I was younger I kept important Bible verses written on a slip of paper inside my shoe. During several periods in high school John 3:30 was my go-to verse.

There have been many seasons in my life where the scale was clearly tipped more in my favor than God's. And there have been times I have felt like I truly had decreased and let God increase in my life.

I'm in the market for a new Bible and I was flipping through the one I've had since I was probably 10 years old. I ran across so many gems that I had highlighted or underlined as a child.

So today my goal is to remember John 3:30. He must become greater and I must become less.
