More of Him and less of me

John 3:27-28, 30


John replied, "God in heaven appoints each person's work. You ourselves know how plainly I told you I am not the Messiah. I am here to prepare the way for Him - that is all. He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less."


I have appointed your work - past, present and future.
I knew even when I was knitting you in your mother's womb the good works I had planned for you.
To bless others and glorify Me.
I saved you.
I redeemed you so that My Son's light would shine through you and point others to Me.
You prepare the way.
I am the Way.
Clothe yourself with compassion, humility, kindness, gentleness, forgiveness, and patience.
But mainly clothe yourself in love.
For love prepares the Way for others to see Me, to experience My Truth, My Life and My Way.
The only way for this to happen is for you to become less and allow me to be More.
I am More than enough for you!
I love you!
Remember Christ died so that all who believed would have My Spirit living inside of them.
So don't mourn that you don't have My Physical Presence beside you because My Spirit lives inside of you!
And isn't this better?
For I can be with all believers instead of standing by a few.
Practice listening to My Spirit.
Trust and obey and your hearing will become clearer.
I want to guide and lead you - let Me through My Spirit!
Remember I only give you enough light for the next step!
I am not going to give you a 20 year, 10 year, 5 year or even a year plan.
But look back, when you obeyed at each step then I gave you light for the next step when you were ready for it and not before.
I know you!
Your real life is hidden in Me.
Seek Me and you will find Me for I want to be known by you.
Remember MORE of ME and less of you!
