Iz directin' towards a higher power!
[Above:] DaVinci's rendering of Saint John the Baptist, cousin of Jesus.
Saint John, throughout his life, proclaimed not himself, great and holy as he was, but Jesus Christ, the messiah to come after him! John the Baptist sadly could not witness the passion, death and resurrection of the Lord he so adamantly proclaimed (in the deserts, in the cities, everywhere he went), but is revered as one of the strongest early preachers in the Church.
Heck, his speeches were so strong, but so upsetting to Herod (mostly due to the fact that they were against many things Herod did and supported that were sinful) that John got his head chopped off as a reward!
Let us pray that we may look forward to the second coming of our Lord, and make ready our sinful and heavy hearts before that time comes!
Oh boy, there is just so much to do with this one!!!
1.) Holy Spirit iz de-sendin on Jezus. Dont look at me. Look diz way.
2.) Lokust and Honee keeps the hair curlee and skin nize...
3.) Wanderin in the wilderness good for the complexion.
I always rather envisioned John more as resembling Robert Ryan (King of Kings). :)
