Just thoughts for this morning....

13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him. 14 And John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?” 15 But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him. 16 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He[a] saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

What am i thinking when i copied and pasted this?? Suddenly it dawned on me that the important thing is submission, obedience, willingness, determination and quiet assertion were his ways of showing us how to do thngs. You know i am not one to express love or very great outward motions of love, but i am sure that Christ's actions were of love too for his heavenly Father and earthly parents. He cared for what they were teaching Him. He cared for their persons. He respected his family and had great compassion to others who were to witness for him.

Father in heaven, my prayer for today is for us all to see the love of Christ and keep it in their hearts. It will glow to others!! and then we will learn love as did the baptist when he gave his love to Christ by his act of submission in the dedication service of baptism.
