Christian hope
Jesus asked: ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ This question, asked in the Gospel of a blind man, is addressed to each one of us by Jesus. The man who was born blind had no hesitation in asking for his sight to be given him.

The Baptism of Christ
John said to the crowd: ‘He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire’. This week, as we celebrate the Baptism of Christ in the Jordan, we also remember and renew our own baptism into Christ in the Church. And the baptism that we have been promised is a baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire. The Holy Spirit brings peace, joy, love etc. Is that how we live our faith or is it more with anxiety, fear, duty etc? Fire brings warmth, light, enthusiasm, hope. Is this how we present Christ to the world or is it more with coldness, lifelessness, joylessness? The challenge of this time is to change our ways and to let the world we live in know the power of Christ’s presence among us by the enthusiasm of our lives of faith. This has to always begin in our homes and families and the community of faith we belong to.
Morning Prayer, when together
Almighty, eternal God,
when the Spirit descended upon Jesus
at his baptism in the Jordan,
you revealed him as your own beloved Son.
Keep us, your children born of water and the Spirit,
faithful to our calling.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
During the day, when apart
Lord, we celebrate the revelation of Christ your Son.
Accept the gift of our marriage
so that we may become one with him.
We ask this through Christ Our Lord.
Evening/Night Prayer together
Lord, you feed us with the goodness of your creation
May we hear your Son with faith
and become your children in name and in fact.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
