Prepare

The voice of one crying in the wilderness:“Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for ourGod.” (Isaiah 40:3, New King James Version)

Decemberis the one month out of the year where everyone spends so much time preparing.There are presents to buy and wrap, cookies to bake, cards to mail, a tree toput up and decorate. And all in preparation for Christmas morning.

Jesus’scousin John, better known as John the Baptist, came to prepare the people forthe coming of Jesus. He didn’t bake cookies or buy presents; he preached to allwho would listen.

Areyou telling people about Jesus in preparation of His second coming?
