--IT'S ALL
ABOUT HIM ~

John 3:22-36
----
He must increase,
but I must decrease.
--John 3:30

When John's disciples heard that a new rabbi named Jesus was gaining followers, they thought John might be jealous (John 3:26). They came to him and said, "He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!" But John celebrated Jesus' ministry. He said, "I have been sent before Him...The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled" (vv.28-29).

An attitude of humility should also characterize us. Rather than desiring attention for ourselves, everything we do should bring glory to our Savior.
"He must increase, but I must decrease" (v.30)

Not I but Christ be honored, loved, exalted;
Not I but Christ be seen, be known, be heard;
Not I but Chirst in every look and action;
Not I but Christ in every thought and word. ~~

-If we want an increase of Christ, there must be a decrease of self.
