New Beginnings

We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. Romans 6:4

Today was a beginning of a new chapter, for me, of sorts - I was baptized! It was an incredible experience that I was blessed enough to share with my sister (my bff), my brother-in-law, and my nephews Brady and Masen (double-gift getting to watch the boys be baptized). It has been something that I have always wanted to do, but my fear of water has always kept me from it, which sounds so ridiculous when I write it, or say it out loud. Talk about letting the devil dictate something to you. Thankfully, Dawnie set everything in motion and finally I did it! And it feels GREAT! My Lord is always there for me and as this next chapter on my life begins...well, only the Lord knows what will come next. I am excited and thankful that I can turn it over to Him and He will direct me. How refreshing!

  2. Kelly,
    Congratulations on taking that step in your life and for overcoming a fear at the same time. I'm so glad that you were able to do both things! Love you,
