WALKING WITH JESUS
When Jesus went down in the waters of the Jordan guided by John’s rough hands, he did so in solidarity with sinners. Jesus’ baptism was a demonstration of his obedience to God, a call he would soon be putting in the ear of all who wanted to follow Him. This is the way it goes, Jesus said: “Wash off the old dirt, shake the dust of sin from your feet. God has created a new day and a new way. Come walk with me out of darkness into the light of day.” As a company of sinners went into the water, they fell in line behind Jesus and together walked toward Jerusalem. God looked at them and was very pleased. From the writings of Mary Anderson, of Saint Paul’s Lutheran Church
