Baptism

A little over a week ago I was baptized! I had been praying for this moment for about two years now. I felt this was perfect timing right after Beach Project. I learned so much and grew so much at Project and I wanted to show the church that I was committed to it and to my Lord. I was baptized in the Tennessee River by Dr. Tom Phillips of my church, New Beginning. Also baptized was the girl I keep after school, Mary Makensie Berry. Both of our families were there and some of my sorority sisters. I was an amazing feeling being dunked. I didn't feel darkness overcome me like I usually do when I go underwater; I felt light. Rising to the surface, I remembered long ago how Jesus died so that my sins could be washed away.
Praise the One who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead!
