Come Together To Repent

Saturday night was a special night.
It was a solemn assembly where we came together and spent the evening with God.
It was a time for repentance.
For Reflection.
Where were we at this time last year?
Where did we want to be this time next year?
Saturday night was a time to pray and listen.
To repent and receive forgiveness.
To cast off the old and embrace the new.
It was a special evening that had no time limit as far as our service was concerned.

During the day, I baptized four men who had been saved.
Each one with a unique story as how they were saved, but each one sharing the common experience of having their life changed.
One by one coming into the water, each one went under and came up a new creation.
There were tears.
There was joy.
There was peace.
I never cease to be amazed at the transforming work of the Holy Spirit.

It was a good day Saturday.

God on you.....
