John would have prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" But Jesus answered him, "Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he consented. Matthew 3:14,15
Consider, in all of your actions, doing things in the way that will ultimately give God the most glory, even if it's not the order in which or the way you're naturally inclined to act.
