Baptism of Jesus

Today, we celebrate the Baptism of Jesus.  Jesus, being the sinless third person of the Trinity did not need baptism to forgive his sins.  He instead humbled himself to be baptized by John. "Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form, as a dove, and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased.""
Luke 3:21,22

I pray for those close to me who have not been baptized to one day soon realize the glory of this wonderful Sacrament.  For those already baptized, may you listen to our Lord's call!
