Baptism
"For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ." (Galatians 3:27)
How greatly blessed are we who have been configured to Christ Jesus in His life/passion/death/Resurrection! Can we ever fully grasp or appreciate what it means to become adopted sons and daughters of God in Christ? Wow! Our lives have infinite promise! Our identity has been firmly fixed in a permanent fashion in Him who is fashioning us! Jesus, the Savior of the world! Let us rejoice with all our hearts in being made members of the Universal Family of God that is the Church. Amen.
