Sometimes God calls us to be different. That was the case with John the Baptist, he was different. Strange clothes, strange diet, strange way to live. He used his inability to fit in as a way to draw attention, not to himself, but to Jesus. He is the one the Old Testament said would prepare the way for the Lord, we need to do this too. As you go through your day-to-day routine, prepare the way for Jesus. Draw attention to him, give the Lord credit for the good things in your life and set-up Jesus-centered conversations with those around you.
Oh… and if you’ve never been baptized… if it was good enough for Jesus, surely it’s good enough for you. 🙂
