Well Pleased (Mark 1:9-15)

Jesus shows no ambiguity about His identity, so why does God need to affirm it at His baptism? I believe Jesus' habit of prayer -- evident throughout the stories of His life -- began long before adulthood, and may have included the question, Who am I? It's certainly a prayer common to the human condition. Just as Jesus' identity was confirmed as He emerged from the water, so is ours.
