The time is 3:30

There are and have been times in my life where I have taken credit for God's work. If I've written a song, I'm guilty of stamping my name as the sole author. If I have lead worship and people are touched, I have been guilty of patting myself on the back for a job well done. If I've given a message to a group of people, I have been guilty of stealing the show away from God. Now don't get me wrong... God wants us to do our best. That being said, God gives us our talents to use for HIS glory... not ours. John the Baptist put it best in the book of John chapter 3 verse 30. (John 3:30) He said, "He must become greater; I must become less". He was speaking to people about Jesus. He wrote a volume of wisdom in eight simple words. Let's face it... we often enjoy the spotlight when things are going great. It's our human nature to put ourselves first. I believe John had something when he spoke that statement into existance. If we could live that one verse, I believe we would have a lot less problems in life. I know for me it is a daily prayer, "Lord, may you become greater in my life!" When you find yourself in a difficult situation or problem, simply ask yourself the question, "Is it 3:30?"
