Jesus was Baptized so that we may become Children of God. (Lk 3:15-16, 21-22) (1 OT)

Jesus was baptized so that we may share in the divine life he offers us by sharing in our humanity. We receive power to do good, cure the sick, cast out demons. But we also receive the greatest gift, and power, of the Holy Spirit, the Power of God's Love. Although we receive it in the sacraments of Baptism, and Eucharist, we open ourselves to it, and experience it's power sometimes not during the sacrament, but after in prayer.
