“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” – John 1:29
A sign language interpreter stands beside a speaker, faithfully repeating each message. The audience watches the speaker, not her hands, yet without her the meaning would be lost. She never alters the words or draws attention to herself; her role is simply to ensure the message is received clearly and without distortion.
John the Baptist lives like the interpreter—fully attentive to the message, never to himself. When questioned, he refuses misplaced titles and faithfully conveys what he has received, pointing to Christ who already stands among the people. Likewise, the Apostle John urges us to let what we heard from the beginning remain within us. This confession—that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Father—is not an optional doctrine but the source of eternal life. When this truth abides, the Spirit clarifies, steadies, and protects us from distortion. Like the interpreter, our role is not to alter the message or draw attention to ourselves, but to transmit Christ faithfully through our lives. Remain rooted in what you have received. Let Christ speak through you. In quiet fidelity, you will help others hear the truth that saves.

A Journey of Reflection and Action
Spend time today in quiet prayer reflecting on how faithfully you carry Christ’s message, journal one truth you have received that must remain rooted in your heart, ask the Spirit to guard you from distortion or self-focus, and gently share this reflection with someone who needs clarity and hope.
Join Us in Prayer
Lord Jesus, Lamb of God, help us fix our eyes on You alone, remain faithful to the truth we have received, and live in humble obedience so that our lives may clearly and quietly point others to Your saving grace. Amen.
