Friends of the Rosary,

Today, January 12, the Church celebrates the solemnity of the Baptism of the Lord.

As we read in the Acts of the Apostles (Acts 10:34-38), “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power. He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.”

John baptized people with water, but Christ Jesus baptized them with the Holy Spirit and fire.

When Jesus was baptized and praying (Luke 3:15-16, 21-22), “heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended upon him bodily like a dove. And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.

The all-light Son of God, the source of all grace, sought and received John’s baptism of repentance to purify and make holy the water by touching it.

Since then, the words heard from the Heavens can be applied to any person baptized. The sacrament of Baptism places in our souls the mark of being the privileged children of God.

Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!

Come, Holy Spirit, come!

To Jesus through Mary!
