Fr. Mark-Mary: 我最初对耶稣来接受我的洗礼感到不安，因为我深知自己不配。我意识到耶稣比我更伟大，我不配为他解鞋带。但耶稣鼓励我，就像天使鼓励玛利亚一样。耶稣对我说，暂时就这样吧，要信任他。我最终同意了，这并不是因为我改变了对自己卑微的看法，而是因为我选择了顺服和信任，就像玛利亚的“fiat”一样。当圣灵以鸽子的形式降临在耶稣身上时，这与玛利亚在领报后被圣灵覆庇的情形非常相似。这幅画作中，耶稣的谦卑体现在他低下头，进入浅浅的约旦河水中。尽管他是圣三位一体的第二位，但他却如此谦卑。虽然我意识到自己的卑微，但我对自己的行为充满信心和勇气，因为我的信心来自于神的旨意。就像玛利亚对她作为上帝之母的角色充满信心一样，谦卑和顺服能带来信心。因此，我们应该效法耶稣的谦卑和顺服，认识到自己的卑微，并以信心和勇气回应神的邀请，信靠那呼召我们的神，因为我们拥有与圣母玛利亚和耶稣一样的圣灵。

Deep Dive

Shownotes Transcript

When Jesus approaches John to be baptized, John initially resists, insisting that he is not worthy. John is troubled, explains Fr. Mark-Mary, and yet, when Jesus reassures him, he obeys with confidence and trust. Andrea del Verrocchio and Leonardo da Vinci’s painting, The Baptism of Christ guides our meditation on humility. Today’s focus is the mystery of the Baptism in the Jordan and we will be praying one decade of the Rosary.

All of the Sacred Art we’ll be meditating with can be found in the Rosary in a Year Prayer Guide, for free linked in the complete prayer plan, or in the Ascension App. For the complete prayer plan, visit https://ascensionpress.com/riy).
