I am my Beloved's and He is mine
i got baptized tonight. it was sooooo good. His love for us is crazy. and baptism goes way way way deeper than just a public profession of faith (or whatever they call it). it is powerful...really powerful. it moves the heavens FOR REAL! it's powerful and our churches have dimmed it down. i'm so thankful i had not been baptized again any other time than now. He had been speaking to me about it a lot lately and almost every time i thought about it the love of Christ would come upon me so thick it would take my breath away and i would begin to cry. i think i could barely breath and couldn't stop crying the whole time during worship tonight ha. our Father is soooo good, family! it was an amazing amazing experience that i wish you guys and my friends could have been there for. Jordan Mahy and his dad met me out there and it was really nice to have them there with me when no one else could. its weird because this day was really really imporant to me (i'd been really excited for it and thinking about it a lot with a lot of anticipation over the past few days) and when i would tell people and ask if they wanted to come it was like it was no big deal. IT'S HUGE! i know they didn't understand the HUGENESS of this to me and how much tonight meant to me which i can't blame them for because just recently had i been open to that there is a lot of power in baptism. i'm so thankful Jordan and his dad could be there with me. it was cool though in a way that no one else could or wanted to come because it made me realize that although no one really cared Jesus was ecstatic! He will always be there with me...always. HE IS FAITHFUL. we CAN trust in his promises because trusting in these is having hope and scripture tells us that hope DOES NOT fail...which in itself is a promise to the faithfulness of his promises ha. take us up Lord. take delight in me and have favor on me, Lord
