THEME: YOU HAVE BECOME A NEW CREATION AND HAVE CLOTHED YOURSELF IN JESUS At our baptism we were told, “You have become a new creation and have clothed yourself in Christ.” Each Sunday we come here a new creation, transformed, even if we’re not conscious of it. Baptism has created us anew, has given us new life. No matter what we may be wearing, we are clothed in Christ. In what we do and in what others see, we hope to show that we have put on Christ. On this feast of the Baptism of the Lord, let us appreciate the new creation we have become. Isaiah 42:14, 67 Here is my servant. Psalm 29 “The Lord will bless his people with peace.” Acts 10:3438 God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit and power. Mark 1:711 The Spirit of God descends like a dove.
