Joy of Forgiveness

At this time of year, when I have been examining myself, in preparation of taking the Passover, I think back about when I was first baptized. Perhaps you do as well. One of the things I deeply realized was that I needed to be forgiven. I remember the ceremony and being put under the water. And I remember coming up out of that water and thinking “I AM CLEAN. It was amazing and the joy of being forgiven was indescribable. All of you here who have been baptized know that same joy.
