Jesus is baptized by John the Baptizer in the River Jordan. He is baptized and shown to be the son of God much like when we are baptized and God shows that he has chosen US to be his beloved children. We are born again in the waters of baptism so that we can go out into the world, as Jesus did, and led by the Spirit, we can serve Him and share His love with all people. That is our baptismal calling as followers of the Christ, bearing the name Christian and the mark of the cross on our foreheads.
