A Love So Amazing...

So.  I feel awesome.  I am happy, I am at peace.  I am so filled with God’s presence that it is indescribable.  I have written about the peace that God gives.  Yet, I don’t think I have ever understood the full extent of it, I don’t think I will ever truly know how far God’s peace and mercy goes.
So.  My oldest son and I were baptized today!  I had no idea it would be so amazing.  I committed my life to God long, long ago.  My faith ever and always growing and developing.  I had a few opportunities to be baptized in the past few years, for one reason or another I did not do it.  I have thought about it often.  Jesus was baptized, he told the disciples to baptize others… When our Pastor mentioned an upcoming baptism service, both my oldest son and I jumped at the chance.  It was time.  It is time.  I was very proud to watch my son be baptized, then it was my turn.  What an experience!  It is very difficult to explain, the love, the peace, the joy…
Dear Lord,
You amaze me continually.  Thank you, thank you, thank you for choosing me, for adopting me into your family!  Every time I open my eyes, I am filled with your love and grace.  Every time I step out my door I am overwhelmed at this world you have created and the majesty that surrounds us!  I have no concept of how people can deny your existence!  You once reminded me that I was a part of this stunning creation of yours.  You reminded me that you, who made all that surrounds us, also crafted me.  You know me, you love me, you amaze me!  I feel your hand in my life, your touch in my soul!  Thank you, Lord!  I will serve you all my days, I will love you with all that I am!  My hands are yours to command Lord.  Please guide me and let my heart and mind remain open to all you have for me!  Please help me to keep on my armor at all times, and always fight for you Lord!  Dear Lord God, I love you!  Please, “let my life-song sing to you”!

In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Acts 22:16  (NLT)
What are you waiting for?  Get up and be baptized.  Have your sins washed away by calling on the name of the Lord.
