Reflection on July 7, 2012

On Saturday morning, July 7, 2012, our daughter Allie called us from youth camp to tell us that she had received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit the night before at a youth service.

I immediately started crying.

There are certain moments in Mommydom that surpass all other moments. For me, these moments have all included verbal affirmations by my children.

These are they:

1. "I love you, Momma," said sincerely. (Psalm)

2. "I accepted Jesus into my heart." (Allie and Raylee)

3. "I want to be baptized." (Raylee)

4. "I got filled with the Holy Spirit." (Allie)

I cherish each and every one of these moments, because these moments are the ones which have ETERNAL IMPACT.

I pray, BELIEVING, and look forward to the day that Psalm tells me that she has accepted Jesus into her heart, that she wants to be baptized, and that she has been filled with the Holy Spirit.

O, what a day that will be!
