A year ago today I gave up living for myself and got baptized. Baptism had always been one of those things that I knew you didn't need to do to go to heaven, so I had always shrugged it off. There was one service in particular that really changed me. My pastor was talking about baptism as an outward expression of your devotion to God. I had never heard it put that way. Of course I wanted to tell everyone that I love Jesus and am committed to him. So the idea of baptism then became a no-brainer. I stood in line that morning as many people took their faith to the next level and couldn't wait for this moment. There's no magic when you put your head under the water, but I sure felt like a new person afterwards. I couldn't get a smile off my face. God has done incredible things with me in just a year and I can't wait to see what He has in store for me next 😊
