itment to God, and a affirmation of our allegiance to Jesus Christ. W=
e baptize because Jesus was baptized, and we are his followers. There=
, on the banks of the Jordan river, with John, our Savior was “brought unde=
r” to fulfill his divine mission of atonement. Baptism is not s=
alvation, but it is a public proclamation of our mission. What are ot=
her ways in which you publicly proclaim your mission to walk with God?
pray that you consider my commitment to Your will in my life. I ask =
that you be with me as I consider the direction of my life, and contemplate=
my mission. Give me the strength to be “brought under”, in Jesus name,&nbs=
