Baptism services of Daniel and Jeremy - Salvation and Birthday!
The intensity of the ministry during this month and in our own lives have filled my heart with joy. The opportunities to serve the Lord and grow in His Grace has been extraordinary. The opportunities to enjoy the family that the Lord has given me has been wonderful.
On Sunday 18th the Lord gave us the opportunity to have a special service of baptisms where our children, Daniel and Jeremiah obeyed the Lord and were baptized. For me as a father this occasion was a very special event. It was a privilege to see how the Lord had been working in the hearts of my own children. I could see the testimony of salvation andcommitment to the Lord that our children have. They have become a public testimony of what the Grace of God can do. I thanks the Lord for them and their obedience toward us and specially toward the Lord. They are not perfect (we are neither) but what a joy to see them growing, loving and serving the Lord. The church was full, there was not enough room and many had be standing up because there were not chairs. I preached a short message about the meaning of baptism, God used it to touch the heart of Mary, a lady who has been visiting our church in several occasions. This was a double blessing; the salvation of a soul added to the wonderful meeting we had.
On Monday 19 it was my birthday. I think there could not be a better gift of what God did on Sunday in our family in our lives and ministry. I am 45 years old now, I am getting old. Time has flown fast, but I am very grateful to the Lord to give me the opportunity to use these years to serve Him. Since He called me, by his grace, when I was just 15 yrs old I had not other joy than to serve Him and preach His glorious Gospel. God has been faithful every day and I know He will continue faithful in the future as He was in the past.
