Reflections From Sunday Evening

What a fun day!  Mother's Day is hard to beat.  The "kids" came up and fixed lunch for everyone.  Mom and Dad with us.  A good family day.  Never take family for granted.  A joy!
Also had a super day at church.  Three baptisms put all of us in a great spirit.  Truly witnessed the move of the Holy Spirit today.
It is impossible to explain the joy of holding a child in your arms and placing the waters of baptism over their head marking them as a disciple of Jesus Christ.  I will surely be praying for the McKee's and Lane's as they raise their children in the Church and in the love of Jesus.
We also put the baptismal to good use today.  McKelvey McDaniel stepped into the water to make her profession of faith in Jesus Christ.  She was buried with Christ in the waters of baptism and raised up to enter the new life of a Christian.  Amazing!
Next week there will be more.  More baptisms.  More professions of faith.  More joy and grace to go around.
It's been a great day.  I trust you've had a great day too.[
