My Baptism

I know all of you have been waiting for me to fill you in on the baptism I have been talking about for so long, well now its time!

On Friday I came to Loveland to spend the night with my mom.
On Saturday I was talking to my dad, who had already promised to go to church with me and go to my baptism, he told my mom to tell me he wasn't gonna make it because he didn't have a ride. It broke my heart.

well it wasn't true him and my sister were tricking me. He showed up as a surprise.

Church that Sunday was AWESOME....I don't think I have seen my dad so touched. After church he didn't stop talking about the message.

He even talked about it to his friends! That night we watched The passion of the Christ. we had already seen it but we wanted to watch it again. My dad may not seem like the most religious person but he has an amazing way of interpreting the bible.

The message on sunday was about how BAD Jesus was. The story of Jesus healing the blind man with mud He made with His own wonderful spit, was mentioned.

On the way to the baptism my dad was telling us that he took the story as, Jesus didnt give the man his sight back, He opened his eyes to sin.

My dad said that if Jesus gave him his sight back the man would enjoy it too much that he would forget to spread the word of Jesus' amazing works.
But if He opened his eyes to sin he would see how much wrong he and the whole world were doing.

Everyone takes the word a different way, my dad really thinks about the story.

Oh yeah back to the Baptism....It was amazing, im not talking about the water because that was cold and the current was strong and almost took me with it a couple of times lol. The feeling was amazing...knowing that my sins were all washed away with that current and that I was gonna work for my amazing Savior was amazing its self.

God has really worked at Center Pointe, many have been saved since I have been a member there and many baptised.

I hope God continues to work through Center Pointe.

GOD BLESS!!!
