John 3:22-30
Jesus through His disciples began to baptise people in a relatively close proximity to John the Baptist. John's disciples were concerned about this and came to him with their worries that 'all are coming to Him!' Rather than being envious, John was extremely joyful that people were following Jesus, after all he had only come to prepare the way. In this holy reaction of John and his desire for Christ to increase and himself to decrease we see 1) Our gifts and call are given by God. 2) our time is limited - We must decrease, and 3) He must increase - Christ must be exalted above all.
