Commentary

2nd Sunday - A
John 1: 29-34

For this Reason I Came

"The reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be made known to Israel."

John knows that he is not the Lamb of God. More importantly, he knows who he is and what the mission of his life is.

Therefore, he is able to recognize the Lamb of God when he comes.

Knowing ourselves gives us the humility to know the purpose of our life. And more, it makes it easier to recognize who God is.
