[Salvation]

**Eventually, John the Baptist encounters the Messiah, “whose shoe I am not worthy to loose.” When he encounters Christ, he finds fulfillment. “He must increase, I must decrease.”**

**Once we encounter Him, we can then proclaim Him to the world, using the words of today’s Communion verse from the Prophet Isaiah: Say: Ye fainthearted, take courage and fear not: behold our God will come, and will save us.**
