We are thankful for the gifts of Forgiveness and Salvation that come to us in our Baptism. We remember Lily’s baptism five years ago today and celebrate the day she became God’s child.
Glorying in Lily’s baptism especially on days when she’s like this, grouchy, complaining, cantankerous…covered in chocolate….and covered in Christ thanks be to God. Washed clean.
All of us covered in this house, forgiven…we need it.
“In Baptism we now put on Christ –
Our shame is fully covered
With all that He once sacrificed
And freely for us suffered.
For here the flood of His own blood
Now makes us holy, right, and good
Before our heav’nly Father.”
All Christians Who Have Been Baptized LSB 596
Poor little Lily! Why you gotta look so sad?
