“I baptize with water; but there is one among you whom you do not recognize, the one who is coming after me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to untie.” (JN 1: 26-27)
Our Lord, “whose sandal strap I am not worthy to untie” and John the Baptist, His predecessor: his role was so important—to prepare people for His/Our Lord’s coming. Fully aware of who he was and fully involved in “the one who is coming:” everything was for Jesus, nothing was for him.
“In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets; in these last days, he has spoken to us through the Son.” (Gospel Acclamation)
Dear Friends, traditionally, in these days, we will have a break. It is time for my annual hermitage retreat. I will be back on the 15 of January. Please keep me in your prayers. I will keep You in mine.
with blessing
Fr. Jay
