Matthew 3:13-17 13 Then
Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.14 John
would have prevented him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you
come to me?” 15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now, for
thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he
consented. 16 And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up
from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw
the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; 17 and
behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom
I am well pleased.”
Jesus began his ministry and mission knowing that God was
well pleased with him. I think God is already well pleased with us as we take
the first step in any new ministry. This prompted me to ask myself,
What first step do I need to take in order to begin whatever
mission God has set aside for me?
We can trust that as we take that first step, God is already
well pleased!
Thought for today:
What actions am I taking in order to insure that I hear “well done my good and faithful servant”?
