[ Jesus is himself baptized ] When all the people had been baptized, and Jesus was praying after his own baptism, Heaven opened and the Holy spirit came down upon him in the bodily form of a dove. Then there came a voice from Heaven, saying, “You are my dearly-loved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
— Luke 3:21-22 J.B. Phillips New Testament
“Reaching For The Light”
The Voice of Love … p 75
Some things I just know
The older I grow;
Of this ’tis easy to see
That God really watches;
He truly does watch over me.
Knowing I’m one of His own,
I know too I’m never alone.
When I stumble and fall,
As happens to all,
The Love that I feel
Is made ever so real
When His voice speaks
Only of Love; a voice that
Doth gladden my soul,
For ’tis God, and God alone
Who makes me whole.
— Garry D. Kilbourn
