January 12th, The Baptism of the Lord
When Jesus came to John to be baptized, John resisted because of his own unworthiness. Jesus
insisted and John obeyed. We, too, must not let our
unworthiness stand in the way of the Lord’s leading. False humility does not serve the
Lord. Listen, obey and see what God will do.
Let us pray: For parents asking the Church to baptize their children, that they might be channels of God’s love and model disciples of Jesus at
home.

THE GOOD NEWSREFLECTION FROM FATHER DAVE
Merry Christmas and Happy Feast of the Baptism of the Lord!
Are you confused??? Are you wondering why the statue of the Baby Jesus is still in the manger in the front of our altar? Are you wondering why the Gospel we hear today is of Jesus being baptized as an adult in the River Jordan?
Let’s clear up the confusion… we conclude the Christmas season with the Baptism of the Lord Jesus because He was not content only to be born only in Bethlehem 2000 years ago, but He also came to be born again in you and me by our baptism. Jesus came to share in our humanity so that we could share in His divinity. Our baptism gives us our identity. We are God’s sons and daughters, God’s children. Just let that thought sink in.
The advertising media is constantly telling us we don’t measure up: we are not as beautiful, as shapely, as energetic, as popular, as successful, as wonderful, or as happy as we should be. But don’t despair, the ad tells us the product they have will make everything better. It will solve our problem and make us over into someone worthwhile. But God has already made us someone worthwhile!
Yes, God loves you. We are His people made in His image and likeness called not to deface or destroy that dignity but called to live up to that image. It defines why we do what we do and to be the best we can be so we can live up to our baptism every day. Saying “NO” to sin, selfishness and Satan, and “YES” to the Lord and the way of love!
I would like to end with this true story of St. Louis, King of France:
St. Louis, King of France, always cherished great respect and affection for the place of his baptism. Often, he would kneel down before the sacred baptismal font in the Castle Chapel at Poissy where he had been baptized and pass hours in acts of thanksgiving to God for the favors bestowed upon him in that holy sacrament. When asked by his courtiers why he went so often to this insignificant, little chapel, why he preferred it to the grand and stately cathedral at Rheims, in which he had been crowned king, he used to reply:
“Have I not good reason for being more fond of the spot where I obtained the dignity of a Christian than of the place where I received only the empty, fleeting honors of an earthly king? At Rheims, I was decorated with the crown of my father and anointed as an earthly ruler. But at Poissy, I was adorned with the precious crown of Jesus Christ and anointed as a child of God. By my coronation at Rheims, I received the right only to rule over my subjects, and to sit upon an earthly throne, whose power and splendor must leave me at my death. But at my Baptism in Poissy, on the contrary, I received the right to sit upon a throne of everlasting glory in heaven.”
Peace in JMJ,
Father Dave
