Sunday, January 9 – Israel was in expectation, wondering if John the Baptist might be the Messiah. John took the opportunity to witness to the fact that he was not the Messiah, that the one to come was far greater than he. When Jesus approached the waters to be baptized by John, the heavens opened, and the Father himself witnessed to the true identity of Jesus, his very Son. Today, we are invited to witness the wonder of the Son of God. And in turn, we are compelled to share that witness with others.
