This Sunday is a day of New Beginnings.
Jesus is now well aware His time has come and he is being revealed as the Son of God.
He continues to identify with us human beings – coming to John the Baptist to be baptized.
It’s all so ordinary – yet at the same time so extraordinary. Imagine hearing, seeing that dove descend on Jesus, and hearing the voice of God:
“You are my own dear Son, and I am pleased with you.”
That’s how it is in the Kingdom of God, ordinary, yet extraordinary. We live our everyday human lives in the context of heaven!
Today is also a day of new beginning for our congregation and for Pastor Tim and Joy. Be assured that the Lord has in mind for all of us how our lives will continue – in both ordinary and extraordinary ways. Be assured of His continuing presence. His promise remains:
I am with you always – even to the close of the age.
