In One Accord

Today is the first of the bookends that mark the Epiphany season—the Baptism of Our Lord and His Transfiguration. In common is the command from God to “listen to Him.” We begin our journey of listening to the Lord, learning from those who went before, acknowledging the revelation of the Lamb of God in baptismal water, and looking to Him, the Word made flesh. In His Baptism, our Lord was not washed because He was unclean but because we are. The Father saw the prophetic words of Isaiah fulfilled in the water of the Jordan, and He claimed Jesus as His own Son and our appointed Redeemer. “You are Mine,” said the Lord to Jesus. Because He said those words to Jesus, they are now addressed to us—the people for whom Jesus was baptized.

Testimonials

George Shepard

Jesus is my friend! Jesus is my guide every minute, every breath, every day. I talk to Jesus. I try to inspire everyone around me with Jesus.

My love for Jesus knows no bounds Jesus died for my sins, and I would die for Jesus. Jesus is my inspiration no one has affected our world the way Jesus has and does.

Jesus is my everything. Jesus paid for my sins by dying on the cross. “God so loved the world He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal everlasting life” (John 3:16).

Be Jesus today!

Jesus is teaching me how to look at others and see their need for Him. He is teaching me how to listen and hear if they know Him.
 
Most importantly, He is showing me how to act upon sharing His love for them. He has taught me to look, listen and act.

Dan Ladagowski

He has fired up the spirit within me and is constantly making me realize more every day that worry, anger, frustration are only ways to fill my days and life with darkness.  Because I have found – and truly believe – that by trusting in our Lord and in Love I have found an amazing treasure in a field (Matthew 13:44). 

Now, above all things, I want to tell others about what I have found so they too can know the Joy it brings to life and where they can find that treasure for themselves.  Every time I feel the despair of the world closing in (and it does often) I can turn to the treasure of Christ in my heart and joy, again, comes back bringing comfort and light.
