Zach sat alone in the chair Sunday morning with a single tear rolling down his cheek. He wanted daddy to go to church with us. I tried to explain to him that we can’t pressure him, and to just have faith. So we went without him, and had an amazing time. Zach decided that he wants to be baptized, sometime before he turns 11, which is in July. This is such a blessing to me, something that I’ve been praying for!
This is a new church that we started attending last month. We really liked it, except for one thing. They only serve communion once a month, and I’m used to taking it weekly. Brooke actually came up with the idea that we could take our own communion at home together, on the weeks that church doesn’t serve it. The congregation is younger, the music is more contemporary, and the praise band is rocking! The pastor is so down to earth, and his knowledge of the Bible and scripture is really impressive. His sermons always seem to hit right on target. Brian attended once, but we know he’ll return again.
Anyway, the church is having a marriage conference that I signed up for, and I also joined a Life Group. I decided that I can no longer put my spiritual growth on the backburner while I wait for Brian. I need to grow!
Brooke and I also signed up for an hour of prayer, at an unconventional time, 3 am Sunday morning. We’ll actually be coming home from something BIG. I am so excited for this hour!
