Today I, Matt, had the awesome opportunity to baptize a friend, my nephew and two of my sons.  It is so amazing that in the middle of my wondering what in the world God is doing with me, he does things I would never have expected.  I was visiting with Thomas yesterday and talking about how he is starting over in life and been through so much and he said to me "is there any reason I shouldn't get baptized?"  I told him the story of Phillip and the Ethiopian (Acts 8:26-40) and how he asked the same question.  We decided to do it today.  I went home and told our family and the three Wyatt cousins that are visiting.  I asked if any of them wanted to be baptized and John-Cole said he wanted to too.  Johnathan, our youngest has said he wanted to everytime I have asked since he was little, but he is six now and after some talk we decided he really wants this for the right reasons.  James also came this morning and said he wanted to as well.  So this morning Thomas went to Christ Family Church and invited them and we met them out there after our family worship time.  It was a great day.  May God continue to surprise us and be the center of our lives!
