My best friends son came up to me and asked me, "How old are you?" I told him 35 and then he said, "and you've never been baptized!?!" I tried to explain to him that I was but it wasn't in the way that our Lord intended it to be so this time I did it the way it was meant to be.
I don't have much to say about the baptism besides that it was an amazing experience and I am so thankful for the chance to be baptized by immersion!
Some great verses I found that I really loved....
"For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit." 1 Corinthians 12:13
"and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a good conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ," 1 Peter 3:21
"He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit," Titus 3:5
and of course my favorite!
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17
