He was being transported to a higher level of care, and I was loading him into the ambulance. Standing there with a solemn look on her face, a young woman watched over him. I was about to ask, “Would you like to say goodbye to your dad?” Just then, she bent over and an affectionate lip lock between the two of them revealed their true relationship. That was his wife and I just missed a bullet by a fraction of a second. Things are not always as they appear.
John the Baptist was the last of the prophets and his dress and diet revealed that God isn’t concerned about the special dignity some seek with their finery.
Now John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
Don’t go by the outward appearance. Give it some thought.
