Stewardship Reflection
     As we celebrate this feast of the Baptism of the Lord, we can study
His actions at the Jordan River as a powerful example of servant leader-
ship. We see in Jesus a type of leadership that is characterized by
humility and leading by example.

     Certainly, the sinless Savior did not need a baptism of repentance!
But Jesus humbly made Himself one with his people to draw us to Him
and create a relationship with us so that we would be open to His teach-
ings and influence. As a servant leader, we also see that Jesus leads by
example. He doesn’t just tell the people they need to be baptized. He
shows them how and does it Himself to teach them. To lead like Jesus,
we, too, must “walk the walk” and not just “talk the talk.” If we want
those who we lead to be generous and hard-working, then we must show
them how to do this by demonstrating generosity and hard work our-
selves.

     Immediately after His baptism, we learn of the powerful affirmation
of the Father who opens the heavens, sends the Holy Spirit upon Jesus in
bodily form, and says audibly, “This is my beloved Son with whom I am
well-pleased.” Let us be filled with gratitude for our amazing God and be
reminded that when we are grateful followers of Jesus and servant-
leaders in imitation of Him, the Father will be well-pleased with us, too.
