I’ve noticed that since having kids people pay more attention to their birthdays than mine! I really wouldn’t have it any other way, though.
There are many times our girls get more attention than me. If I’m not ok with that, I’m not ok! And it should be infinitely more that way when it comes to us and God.
Mark 15:9-10 says, “But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews? For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.”
Envy.
Instead of that nonsense, let’s remember what John the Baptist’s goal was: “He must increase, but I must decrease.” (John 3:30)
