January 10, 2016: Feast of the Baptism of our Lord

On this last day of the Christmas Season, we celebrate God manifest in Christ at His baptism, when He was anointed with the Spirit and called God's Beloved Son.

We who are baptized fuse our identity with Christ's, becoming His beloved children, anointed with His Spirit to participate in His mission.

Indeed, a voice cries in the wilderness for us to prepare the way for the Lord, for the Lord is coming into our hearts, so that the Kingdom may be manifest through us as Christ shows His glory in us who are His.

So while our annual observance of the Christmas Season and its manifestation feasts has reached its conclusion, we now have a mission to live out, in Christ.
