The Seven Splashes
Renewing Your Baptism Each Morning
The narration is an AI voice clone of Jeffri, speaking his own words.
Seven splashes of cold water. One declaration with each.
Said aloud or in the heart, slowly, one breath per splash. You are not waking your body only — you are waking your soul, and renewing the promises spoken over you at the font. This is a remembrance of your Baptism, not a repeating of it: the water once received can never be received again. Here you re-consent to what it already made you.
Splash 1 — I renounce Satan.
He has no claim on me. I am not his; I am the Father’s.
Splash 2 — I renounce all his works.
Every sin I have loved, I let go. Sin holds no power over me today.
Splash 3 — I renounce all his empty promises.
I will not chase apparent goods. The world cannot fill what only God can fill.
Splash 4 — I believe in God the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
He made me on purpose, in His own image. I am not an accident.
Splash 5 — I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son — crucified, risen, and alive.
He died for me, He rose for me, and He calls me His friend.
Splash 6 — I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, and life everlasting.
The Spirit dwells in me. I am never alone.
Splash 7 — The Doxology. Through Him, with Him, and in Him.
I recognize the Father — His power, His love, His mercy. Made in His image and fallen, I am restored not by my own strength but by grace, through Jesus Christ: united to the Father in the waters of Baptism, made one with Him in the Body of Christ. By His gift I share in His divine life — and one day, in glory, I will share it fully.
Six Promises, One Amen
The first six splashes renew the promises of your Baptism — three times you reject the enemy, three times you profess the faith of the Church. The seventh is different. It promises nothing and renounces nothing; it lifts the soul in praise for what grace has already done. “Through Him, with Him, and in Him” are the words that seal every Eucharistic Prayer at Mass. So the seven splashes carry you from the font to the altar: six promises renewed, and one Amen sung.
Begin again tomorrow. Each return goes deeper, the way water shapes stone.
