Commentary on the Gospel of January 10, 2021: the baptism of Jesus

Baptism is not a little water on your head, but it is the indelible experience of being immersed in a Love that makes life work. In fact, the possibility or impossibility of life depends precisely on how much we remember or not being loved. When you don't feel loved you can't even tie your shoes except with difficulty. When you feel loved you can climb even the highest mountain. Jesus can be Jesus only because he is loved by the Father (here is Baptism !!). You can only be you if you make yourself loved by him (here is Baptism !!). The Christian life is the infinite attempt to let oneself be loved and loved, that is, it is the infinite attempt to use Baptism. #Vangeloding
