she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me in a charger the head of John the Baptist ...Mark 6:25,... nothing better to expect! Herod may be a good man respecting John and actually may listen to John but it still remains the poison he brought inside his own family (which he very well knew was abhorred by the LORD) finally gave its fruit. He thought he can safely listen to John and herodias and manage his way through! But his sin found him out and destroyed him - made him guilty of John's blood. Can imagine wat a pain it would have been for him to live in a family with conflicting convictions. His sin produced a girl who hasted to kill a just soul. Lord teach me deep inside that my sins will always find me out!
