John the Baptizer humbly affirms his identity as merely a messenger—a voice crying in the wilderness—whose purpose is to point others to Jesus. When he declares, “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,” John reminds us that our lives, too, are meant to direct attention away from ourselves and toward Christ. In a world that prizes self-promotion, faith invites us to live like John—bearing witness each day to the One who alone takes away our sin and gives us life.
