B'S
BAPTISM!!! WOOOO!!!!! My goodness... it was such an awesome
experience.. I wish I could tell you it all in detail now but I'll have
to write it out.. but in a nutshell.. So first off he texted us the
morning of his baptism and was like "How can I know I'm worthy to be
baptised in the name of Jesus Christ... when he was so perfect and when I
have been so far from perfect?" .. So we went to his house and shared a
lesson with him.. and answered his question.. that really set the tone
for the day.. Then we left to fill up the font.. And it's supposed to
take 3 hours.. 3 hours comes.. and its so shallow... and his baptism was
just in an hour... so we were freaking out.. then to make matters
worse... the water was scolding hot!!... I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THAT!...
The water is usually always always freezing.. but for some reason we
couldn't get cold water... so we were like firemen.. frenzying around
chucking buckets of cold water in hahaha... fast forward... we got it up
to a reasonable level... and he was baptized! It was such an amazing
experience... it definitely taught me a lot as well about the Holy
Spirit of Promise.. Elder O baptised him at first.. and his pants
had an air pocket and it came up... so they did it the second time and
that's when it hit me... Not the first time.. because it wasn't
performed properly... but the second time I had the strongest
confirmation and burning in my bosom that it was performed properly and
by correct priesthood authority! And I was then able to confirm him the
following day.. and it was my first time.. I was nervous as.. in the
circle my legs were shaking and stuff haha, but it was such a humbling
experience... to give a human being.. the gift of the third member of
the Godhead!.. The Holy Ghost!.. It was sooooo legit! And he already got
interviewed for the priesthood so next week he's going to get that!
WOOP WOOP! Good things happening in Coffs Harbour.
