Sacred Moments
Today I read about Jesus as a boy teaching in the temple, and Him becoming a man who at His baptism, heard the words of God the Father proclaiming Himself pleased with Jesus.
How glorious that must have been, to behold Jesus and the Holy Spirit, and hear the voice of the Father! How wonderful for Jesus to hear His Father proclaim Himself pleased with Him! I wonder what the people around were thinking and feeling at that moment. Did they notice? Or did the moment pass them by because they were wondering if the water was cold, or about the people around them? Would I have noticed, or would I be worried about stubbing my toes on stones in the river?
I pray to be aware of the sacred moments I encounter.

Great idea...and also to be similarly aware of the needs of those that are put before us
