time travel tuesday ~ salvation edition

This week I decided we should revisit our time of salvation, or a special time in your spiritual life. Was there a moment when you became a Christian, or did it take a while? Can you remember that special time in your life?

I can't remember a time in my life when we didn't go to church. Three times a week (at least) ... or every time those church doors opened we were there. We went to any meetings, camp, vbs, whatever the church did... we participated. I was raised in a very conservative church and was baptized at a very young age, looking back it was really too young. Several years later, while at church camp as a teenager, I decided to take that plunge again... getting re-baptized. It was a special night, I remember the water looking like it had a fog above it. I felt something inside that it seemed I only felt at camp. After Izzy's accident I have had blinders removed from my eyes and realize that there is so much more that God has given me. The gifts are endless. I am not judged on my works, rather Christ died to forgive my sins, heal my diseases and cause me to prosper which makes me want to act in a way that please Him. I thought about being re baptized recently when they held a big public baptism at a church we have been going to regularly for a couple of years. I almost did it... I guess I have decided that I have obeyed God's command to be baptized by water. There are now other avenues for me to explore and I am so glad Christ lives in me. I used to say to the kids, "where is Jesus?" and they would point to heaven. Now I say, "Jesus is in you." He lives, praise God.
