Evening: Psalm 103; Amos 9:11-15; John 3:22-30
With his focus on repentance, John Baptist sees that we really need not only repentance that leads to a change of behaviour, but repentance that leads to a change of heart. So John said: “I baptize you with water; but one who is more powerful than I is coming ... He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” What Jesus offers is utterly transformative on a deep level … he addresses not surface dirt that can be washed off; he addresses the deep wounds of the soul and invites an inner transformation of the heart
