  • Called to baptism

    Posted on November 6th, 2008 michael No comments

    While studying the Rock San Diego sermon (wait section), a series of events led me to give up on watching what was turning out to be a great learning experience.  I took that to mean, that God feels that I had seen enough the time being.  I took that as a sign that I was to follow what was being taught and Wait for the Lord in prayer.  I said “I love you Jesus” over and over and over, and as my thoughts dispersed, I sat waiting.  This is the dialog that ensued:

    Michael
    Yes, Lord?
    I love you
    I know Lord, I love you too.

    (tears filled my eyes and my head bowed down uncontrollably)

    I want you to do something for me
    Anything Lord
    I want you to kill…

    (I started to get worried here about what was coming – I was in disbelief that this is where He was headed)

    I want you to kill yourself

    Terror filled me, but then I realized that Jesus would not mean He wanted me to take my own life.

    What do you mean Lord?

    Then I had a clue what He was asking for – baptism

    Do you mean baptism, Lord?
    Yes
    I will do as you command.
