Baptism

Today, Sunday the 10th, Me and two other people got baptized. I was very nervous. When giving my testimony my lips were so dry that when I tried to wet them with my tongue, they would stick together! Anyway, I would like to share my testimony with you. I was born again on June 23. When I was down in Florida I always THOUGHT I was saved because I went to a "GOOD" church with a "GOOD RELIGION". But when I came up here, I had more time to think about my faith. And I realized that I was lost and going to hell. About two weeks after one of my friends up here got baptized, I started feeling very depressed. I could feel a very literal weight on my shoulders. I was angry at anything and everything that moved for no good reason. I didn't know who I stood for. God or satin. So finely I could bear it no longer. I talked to mom and dad about what was happening. They told me that there might be a real spiritual battle going on inside me, and they told me to pray about it. So I prayed for the last three months and knew were I wanted to stand. For God. Anyway, so I asked dad if I could be baptized, and he agreed. So I was baptized with two other new believers in Christ (Tray and Allison). I have to thank God that I moved. If I had not moved I most likely would still be heading for doom.

Afterward we all sang some songs and went to a place called Furnace Park. We had food and played lots of fun games. So the overall day was a lot of fun and exciting.
