Father God, thank You for Your Word. Thank You for the records kept about the life and history of John the Baptist and of Jesus and his disciples. Thank you for Mary and for her obedience and willingness to accept Your Word as truth and to be used as a vessel by You. Help us to be just as willing, Father. All Jesus had to say to his disciples was "Come and see". He offers us the same invitation today. All we have to do is follow Him. As we begin our journey through the New Testament, open our hearts and our minds and give us fresh manna, new revelation on Your Word, Father. We long to have a deeper understanding and closer relationship with You. Amen
