Increase or Decrease?

So your boss comes into your office and asks you this question: "We have to review your salary. Would you like an Increase or a Decrease?" In your mind you are thinking "Dah, is this guy for real? Increase of course..." When it comes to worshipping Jesus, do we choose increase or decrease? John the baptist is asked if he is jealous that Jesus is taking over the ministry from him (John 3) - John is not phased in the least. His reply is this: "He (Jesus) must increase, but I must decrease!" (John 3:30) Lord, may that be our attitude when it comes to serving you. We live in this incredible Grace because of Your great love for us. You must be Greater - I must be less!
In the grip of His Grace,
D3LM3
