The Baptism of the Lord “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of those sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.” (Mark 1:7) We are put on this earth to love God, love our neighbor and make disciples. How many times does our own pride and ego get in the way on fulfilling God’s plan for us? Humbling ourselves before God and putting Him first in all things should be our top priority.
