With JOY.
Because this guy:
is getting baptized in the morning.
I can hardly wait. I am as happy now as the day he was born. Maybe even more so. My son has his whole life ahead of him to follow hard after the LORD, to serve Him, to bring God glory. Or if God calls him home tomorrow, my son will spend the rest of eternity praising God in heaven. I tear up just thinking about it. What a privilege it is to have the chance to pour into this little boy's life every day!
O had only two concerns about getting baptized. He knew without a doubt he'd accepted Jesus as his Savior. That was never a question. But he was very concerned about getting his church shirt wet. And he felt very unsure about how long he would be held under the water. Funny boy!
O wrote a sweet paragraph about getting baptized that I'll post soon. Right now, I'd better go prepare the crazy menu Owen requested for our celebratory lunch!
