This Sunday’s gospel story opens with further reflection on Jesus’ baptism. He is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world and the one anointed by the Spirit. In the liturgy we come and see Christ revealed among us in word and meal. We go and invite others to come and worship the Holy One and to receive the gifts of grace and peace. We serve with and for our neighbors as we are made into God’s healing justice in the world. This is how we shine with God’s love.
