My niece Melynda (Marks olderst girl) had called me sunday morning to say she was getting baptised at St Pauls Baptist Church in Boise. I got down on my hands and knees and prayed that God would answer Nellie's dream. If not today or tomorrow whenever he desired to do so. (In Gods time). Melynda doesn't know yet what has happened to her dad because it is too upsetting and hard for her to deal with right now. I called all of our family to come. Most of our family came and also Alex and Kathy Simpson. Melynda found St Pauls Baptist church all on her own, it was her second week there and she deceided to get baptised . We all went to watch, the message was on giving God the glory for all things and thanking him for his mercies. One scripture which was given was
Romans 12:2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what Gods will is---his good, pleasing and perfect will. NIV
another scripture that really stuck with me was
Psalms 133 How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down upon the collar of his robes. It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life forevermore. NIV
the precious oil represents the holy spirit fully surrounding Aarons whole body. I know that God has surrounded us with his holy spirit because we have great peace and we know that God is in control of this. Thank you for your peace oh precious Lord!
