A girl waits in line to receive baptism. She sees those who come
before her with
Anticipation of her turn for public profession, and spiritual
rebirth.
She notices those who come up out of the water. She sees smiles
of knowing as the
life-changing event
takes place in the lives of those who are now her forever family.
The smiles, the beauty and the tears mingled with the water that
wipes the veil of the
eyes that
once was present.
It’s her turn. As she looks for her family and friends in the
crowd, she makes her last
step into the
water. The only thought present at this moment is that of her Redeemer;
His life, death on a cross, and resurrection. Jesus tasted death
and conquered that foe
for us all.
She closes her eyes and holds her breath as she is plunged into
the water.
Making her way to the surface, she sees the lights of the
sanctuary. She is a witness
Now for the true Light of the World, and, born again. To God be
all the Glory! In His
Kingdom, this soul has found her way home beneath the crimson
flood.
