But you have been anointed by the Holy One....
These are words I need to hear today. I need to be reminded that I have been set apart by God. Set apart not because I am more special than anyone else, but set apart so that all may be set apart. Being anointed isn't about a small inclusive circle so that I can lord my "holiness" over others.
We are anointed in our baptism so that we might become a shining light. A light that attracts. A light that shines for others to see and know what goodness is---God is good. And in Him there is no darkness at all.
God is counting on us to know and act in ways that say: I am anointed........come, and be anointed too!
