I choose Jesus

Unfortunately my camera wasn't having any love for the low lights on the stage for CJ's baptism. They all came out dark and yuck. Many of you will be surprised that I had a back up plan and brought the video camera.. Seriously, I KNOW!! Last night CJ and I were talking and reading and praying about today and she was so nervous. You have to give a statement of faith and she was wanting to practice what she would say. It was pretty cute and funny the things she was coming up with. Well she settled on something she felt comfortable with and she was going to say that she Loves God and she chooses Jesus because he loved her enough to die for her and take away her yucky sins... well this morning she woke up and said she could barely sleep all night nervous that she had to talk.. At church during the baptism there were also two other kids getting baptized. Pastor asked both of them for their statement of faith..when it got to CJ he asked her if she believed Jesus died for her and and she said yes! That was it, into the baptismal and down you go in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit! After she was relieved and happy not to have to be nervous about what to say. Then she wanted to go to Chili's to get her some RIBS ...mmmmmmmmmm
