Alive in the Spirit -- That's what the Baptism of Jesus is all about! So Jesus reminds us that because of what he has done for us, our own baptism is a marvel of grace and of divine love. Like John the Baptism, we also hear the words of God -- "This is my Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." And how do we follow Jesus, God's beloved Son.? It is through the Holy Spirit who transforms us and all our abilities to be able to listen to Jesus, but in a way that changes us into his own likeness.
How has the Holy Spirit entered the details of your life up to now? And how has Jesus shown us the wonder of his presence in our daily experiences? The Baptism of Jesus is a great opportunity for us to celebrate God's gift to us --- as the children of God. It's the perfect time to remember who we really are - God's beloved son and daughter!
