Guest ArchangelKid Posted February 19, 2013 Report Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Hello there, my name is Brian and I just recently got baptized on the 17th of February. It was a long journey for me, I felt that I knew what I wanted for myself, I felt that I knew what I wanted in life. But that all changed when I felt the Holy Ghost's presence. I realized that what I was doing in life, wasn't what my Heavenly Father wanted of me. I broke commandments, disobeyed the rules, I pretty much abandoned everything and lived in the dark. It's not easy to leave this place but with the help of the missionaries, members, and investigators, I was able to slip through Satan's grasp and be born once again. I'm a Latter-day Saint, and it's awesome. Today was my first day, out in the world, I observed things carefully and I'm sad by the things I see. It's not fair that these people are trapped in the dark with no help, I will make it my personal mission, to help bring these people out of that darkness and into the straight and narrow path that our Heavenly Father wants us to take. I hope to baptize someone before the year ends, that's my goal. My baptism yesterday was awesome, I had to get dunked three times. I kept telling myself to bend my knees but I finally got it at the 3rd time. I mean, third time's the charm right? My missionary, Elder Broadbent, got transferred. Today was his last day in our area, tomorrow, he will go to his new area. I'm going to miss him, but I'm extremely glad that I got to meet him and learn from him and Elder Finlinson. They both were really great, and I learned a lot from the two of them. I finally had the chance to take them out for dinner, which was awesome. I wish I had the opportunity to do it more than once but it was great. Everything went perfect, and it was great to get to know them a little better. I would have never guessed that one of them liked Ke$ha and the other sang Taylor Swift songs, haha. Well, I have posted on here before, but I felt confident today to actually introduce myself. I even changed my religion to "LDS" on the upper right corner. I like it haha. I look forward to getting to know you guys! Below is my program from baptism. When the primary children began to sing, I almost cried, it was so beautiful, and they were so dang cute! Edited February 19, 2013 by pam Quote
pam Posted February 19, 2013 Report Posted February 19, 2013 Brian I deleted the picture you posted. It had far too much personal information on it. That is per the site rules. :) Quote
Guest ArchangelKid Posted February 19, 2013 Report Posted February 19, 2013 I'm so sorry, I forgot about that. It won't happen again. Quote
