I am leading a Men's Group that meets Wednesday Nights. If you were sitting in on our discussion tonight you might be wondering if God's surprises are as much for Him to unfold as it was for me to recieve.
The PRE-Story: Eight days ago I recieved a call from a soldier on leave by the name of Tyler. During his last tour he tells of a 'come to Jesus moment' that transformed his life and while on leave asked if he could be baptized. The only time he could be baptized would be this Sunday. We arranged - thanks to our Trustee Duane - to celebrate this weekend.
The WOW Moment: So at our Men's Group - one of the great young men shared that he had a 'come to Jesus moment'. He decided to take a shower and get things right the Lord. But the moment he stepped into the shower he heard God tell him two words...BE BAPTIZED. There was no way for this young man to know that I had set up a Baptism Service so when he told our group this story I was shocked. I shared with him that I had set up a baptism - the look on his face, PRICELESS.
I left out a lot of details...but it serves to remind me how much fun it is to follow Jesus!
Awesome service. Thanks for sharing this.
