WEEKLY REFLECTION
You Are My Beloved Son
01-12-2025 | Fr. Augustine Acheme, VCThe Baptism of the Lord marks the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, and in today’s Gospel (Luke 3:15-16, 21-22), we witness a profound moment of divine revelation. As Jesus is bap zed by John, the heavens open, the Holy Spirit descends upon Him in the form of a dove, and the voice of the Father proclaims, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.” This event is a powerful affirmation of Jesus’ identity and mission, but it also invites us to reflect on our own baptism and the transformative grace it brings to our lives.
