Kapag binigay natin nang buo ang sarili at buhay sa Diyos upang ang plano Niya ang masunod, magkakaroon tayo ng kasiyahan, kapanatagan ng loob at kapayapaan na hindi natin matatagpuan makuha man natin ang lahat ng yaman sa mundo.

Makikita ang karunungan sa ating buhay kung ginagamit natin lahat ng ating kakayahan at kaalaman para sa papuri sa Panginoon at upang tulungan ang iba na mapalapit sa Kanya.

Maaaring hindi natin nararanasan ang pagdurusa na naramdaman ng santo na ating ginugunita ngayon, ngunit tayo ba ay patuloy na naninindigan sa ating pananampalataya?

Malapit sa puso ng mga Pilipino ang debosyon sa Señor Sto. Niño. Sa wikang Ingles, ang ibig sabihin nito ay “Holy Child”. Ang “Holy Child” na ito ay walang iba kundi si Hesus.

Ang pagbibinyag ni Juan Bautista kay Hesus ay hudyat ng simula ng pampublikong ministeryo ng ating Panginoon. Magsisimula na ang tatlong taon Niyang pamamalagi sa mundo upang magpagaling ng mga maysakit, magpalayas ng demonyo at mangaral ng Mabuting Balita.

Nakikita ng mga tao ang kanilang paghihirap sa paghihirap ng Panginoon. Dahil sa Kanya, nararamdaman ng bawat deboto na mayroong Diyos na pwede nilang lapitan – Diyos na handang dumamay sa kanilang pinagdaraanan at nakaiintindi sa kanilang nararamdaman.
