I just started a discussion about my son Stuart getting saved on February 22. The next Sunday he went forward to make it public. Unfortunately, I was sick with the flu and a sinus infection so I didn't get to be there for that, but the following Sunday when he got baptized I was feeling 100 percent better and I was definitely there for that!! I have uploaded a picture of him. Bless his heart, he was so nervous, but he made it just fine!!SheliaLee

Responding through my email, so I will take a look at the pic after I submit it. It's always an awesome feeling when our children accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and then to be baptized as a symbol of doing so. Glad you were feeling better so that you didn't miss this important event of Stuart's life.

That is so true!! Now our family circle is complete! With his autism we weren't totally sure how much Stuart understood but the Lord gave him the understanding that he needed.

That is so cool, SheliaLee. I remember getting baptized myself. It is so clear in my memory. I was four, and my dad was the one who baptized me. He of course was the pastor, so it made sense. I'm glad to hear about Stuart's faith and I share in your joy!

Thats something to Praise the Lord about, I'm sure he was glad to see that you were able to make it to his baptism, and I'm sure you were too...Have a good day
