Marissa's Baptism

What a significant and exciting day we had today! Marissa was baptized!!!
Marissa has been asking questions about Jesus since she was 2 years old. She accepted Jesus as her Savior on June 4, 2009. She has been relentless in stating that she now needed to be baptized. So today was the day.
The Bible says that the angels in Heaven rejoice when someone accepts Jesus as Savior. Do others in Heaven also get to see? I don't know. But if they do, I know Jaime was rejoicing. Mommy and Daddy were, too.
The faith of a child is so pure and inspiring. We love Marissa so very much and to see her make this adult-sized decision at such a young age is precious and pure and such a big responsibility to us as her parents. Our little one is growing up, moment by moment, day by day. We are so thankful to be a part of what God has in store for her.
