Justus went to the alter many times as a child and has accepted Jesus into his heart multiple times with both Steve and I during bed time prayers, etc. However, tonight was a bit different. He's older now. Tonight he asked when he was going to be baptized. It was a great way to ask him about his committment to Christ. We spent time talking about how he planned to live his life, which road/path he desires for himself, his family, and his own children. We prayed together for protection, a clear mind and that the right choices in life would become apparent when things seem confusing. He felt good about his new/better defined committment to Jesus, it was a great conversation and I'm so glad I got to experience it with him.
I believe we recommitt ourselves to Jesus every morning and look forward to further conversations with both Justus and Jordan throughout their life. Conversations like this make your heart swell.
