OT Praise

Post by blessedmomof4 » Thu Sep 22, 2011 9:25 am

My three daughters got baptized last night! It was so exciting I am letting them sleep in today :D I have been waiting all their lives for them to ask to be baptized-I already knew they had each given their hearts to Christ some time ago, but how wonderful for them to decide to take this step of obedience. I am on cloud 9! I am also convinced that my decison to come back to homeschooling had some effect-the fact that I chose to spend more time with them and encourage them in their walk, especially for the youngest two in HOD. As a side note, my hubby and I were there with them, and so was their natural father, and we were all able to share joyfully in the occasion. God is so gracious and good. I got wet too, as I kissed them each as they came up out of the baptismal pool :mrgreen: Another side note, my son (now age 19) got baptized just last year. This momma's joy is so full-my highest desire for my children, that they would serve the Lord, is full :D
