In the Gospel John 1:29-34, a certain thing stands out to me. This particular thing is unusual because of the uniqueness of John the Baptist. From this Gospel, I picked up the message of being your own person. John wasn't afraid to be different and he didn't care what others thought about him. Despite the judgement that he knew he would get, he followed through with his baptism. He risked many things and put his faith before anything else. In life, we are meant to be different from every other person. I try to always be myself and to never be a copy of another person. Although standing out is a great thing, sometimes it can be a scary thing for a person to do. By choosing to stand out, someone may feel like they will be judged by other people.
