The voice of one crying

John 1:23 kjv. "He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias." The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the Way of the Lord, and make His path straight. There was a man in the country around the Jordan preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. This man did not have a top of the line suit nor did he eat at the very best restaurant. He didn't have a giant church with air-conditioning or the most powerful worship team. Don't get me wrong, that is all great to have, but all this man had was his voice. He was clothed in camel-hair and strapped with a leather belt. His diet consisted of locusts and wild honey. He was genuine, one of a kind, and a prophet calling Israel to Repentance.  His voice brought many out to the banks of the Jordan river to hear him, and be baptized by him. God used this man in a powerful way to prepare the way for Christ. This was John's life, his purpose, and his eternity. What's your purpose in life? God will always open the door for you and I to be a voice in the wilderness, and to minister to those around us. All we need to do is trust in Jesus  Don't let those moments pass you by. We all have a voice. Give God Praise
