I have learned so much about God and His plan for us, over
the last year. Supposedly, I was
teaching others. But, God was teaching
me, through them.
One of our crew members has been asking many questions about
baptism. His questions started with the mechanics of the act. You know, who does it, how is it done, is it
done on a day other than Sunday, etc.
These were all such “basic” questions. I explained that it was not
difficult. I shared Biblical accounts of those who were baptized. More
questions came up. I wanted them to see that the key is water, immersion, and a
cleansed heart. As we talked and I answered other questions, I realized there
was a great truth hiding in the simple answers: There are some things that are
so important that God did not establish unreasonable or high barriers.
