I was listening to the morning conversations that Sister Betty put out! They are so good!
I got to feeling so good and so thankful, and in the middle of that, I remembered something wonderful!
Right before God sent Jerry, and shortly after I came out of the coma, two very sweet ladies convinced me that I needed to be water baptized. I was a broken-down mess, but I wanted to be fixed. I remember right before I was getting in that big tank of water, I was hoping and praying to come up different. I wanted to come up clean and different. I didn’t, and I remember how sad and disappointed I felt because it wasn’t real. I really had hoped it would be.
Why did I ever think that!!! It surely wasn’t from anything I grew up thinking or having been taught. As a Catholic, I was baptized at birth and was taught I was good to go!
So where did that thought ever come from, or Praise God, Who did that thought come from!
That is just absolutely wonderful to me. And bless those sweet ladies who thought they were helping me. Something in them thought baptism would change me, too. They just had the wrong one!
I pray Jesus gives them his baptism.
