On April 2nd, Mae Stanley was baptized as a child of God. It was such a special day. Infant baptisms may seem silly to some, and no, we don't look at it as her "safety net" to Heaven. The sacrament of baptism represents the grace God gave us through Jesus Christ and the new life we have in Him. Even though Mae Stanley will never remember this day, her family will. We promised to teach Mae Stanley about her wonderful Savior, and we eagerly pray for the day when she stands in front of the church body and proclaims for herself that Jesus Christ is Lord of her life.
After the service, we had our families over to our house for a light brunch. Sister blogged about it here.
Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.
John 7:38
