I am now baptized! October 21, 2007 is also a day I will never forget. There were 61 people who got baptized, how amazing... praise the Lord! 34 of them were highschoolers, such as myself. It was SO great! Even though I didn't exactly share my testimony as I should have, I got baptized knowing that I'm a true Christian who has a desire to follow and obey God for the rest of my life. I repented of my sins and put all my faith and in Jesus Christ, and that's what I was there to profess! I remember how nervous, yet excited I was to get baptized. And yes, I did fall going down the ladder to get into the pool for those of you who were wondering. Afterwards, I realized that I was nervous for nothing because in my heart I knew I was ready to do this. Plus, I had my friends comfort and pray with me before which really did help. I was so happy to share this day with all my Christian friends who were also baptized. Congratulations everyone who took the Lord's command and got baptized! Not only was this major event something I wanted to do, but it is what God commands in His word. Getting baptized was great! After getting dunked, I knew it was out with the old, and in with the new.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:17
