a celebration in heaven
congrats to frank and vivian of their public declaration of new faith in Jesus Christ!
this post is for my brother and his fiance. i didn't have the courage to speak up during the baptism on thurs. because i started tearing while we're singing the hymns... so i knew if i were to say anything i would start crying.
i just want to say that i'm so happy for the both of you to come to know Jesus in a personal way. i've been praying for you guys for years so have many others. it's amazing for me to see how God chose to answer those prayers. the last few months have been very intense for you guys with the marital counselings and bible studies, but i'm just so surprised how you had the desire to study God's word so diligently. i knew that it was Him who gave you the desire to want to know Him better. during the baptism, hearing you say " i do" for confirmation with such boldness and sure-ness gave me chills down my spine, because i knew that no men can come to this saving knowledge of Jesus Christ without Him working in you.
frank and vivian sharing their testimony after the baptism.
all the people that were there to share your new 'birthday' with you.
vivian, i'm so glad that not only will you become my sister-in-law in a few months, but we have a spiritual family that's everlasting. =)
you know.. i am so overwhelmed with joy for the amount of blessings that God had shown to our family this year.
