this are the times ::.
there's something about hearing testimonies of how a person has encoutered the savior in their lives and what God has done in their lives since that is so life-giving and refreshing to me. i love hearing testimonies. at our church we have a testimony sharing time before a person gets baptized. there's nothing really magical about baptism but it does something to me and i think the people watching. it's one of the rare times where i find tears streaming down my face, tears of utter joy. baptism reminds me of why i do what i do. i can keep moving forward, pick up my cross and press on, hard. my heart gushes with love and a renewed passion to call all people to know the one who will set them free.
