Good morning Friend,

One of my happiest moments in ministry have been when I see friends and family take that step of faith and obedience through baptism. Natalia en her husband Luis took that step this weekend. Join me in congratulating them for this great step.

In the book of Deuteronomy the law indicated that the eunuchs could not be in the assembly of God. Yet the eunuch was reading the scripture but not understanding it until Philip told him the good news of the Gospel. That Jesus came for all the people. That was including him. After hearing the good news, this was the reaction of the eunuch:

36 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?" 38 And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.
Acts 8:36-38

When I first started reading the bible, I did not understand scripture but when I read this chapter I felt like the eunuch. I felt that all my life I was a outcast, that love was not meant for me. But these verses change my life forever. I went to my pastor and told him that we lived on an island and asked him why I was not baptized yet. I asked him if I understood well or not? The rest is history. What is your story? Have you shared your story yet? Natalia & Luis did...congratulations!

God bless you,
