What a fabulous way to end our week at the beach - coming home to baptize our sweet Olivia Reagan! About two weeks before we left for vacation, Olivia asked when she could be baptized!
While sitting on the beach we worked on writing out her testimony that would be read just before her baptism. This is what she told me. . .

“Hi, my name is Olivia Robbins. I have been attending Church at the Grove since I was 4 years old. When I was 5 years old we went to Summer Jam. I learned a lot about God and who He is. I realized God loves me so much. I want to show people this!
At homeschool we talk about affirmations. I am protected. I am fearless. I am blessed. I am joyful. Knowing this has helped me because I am afraid of storms. I know that God is with me. He’s always been with me protecting me and my family. Storms are defiantly bigger than me but the Lord is bigger than the storm. I know I am protected.
There are many people that have helped me learn about Jesus. I am thankful for my Momma who has helped me learn about Jesus and the Bible. My friends and all my teachers at church have helped me as well. I want all of you to know who Jesus is and to be thankful that you have Him because He has done some really great things in your life.
I accept God as my Father, Jesus as my Savior and the Holy Spirit for my direction. I am thankful for my friends and family for being there for me supporting me through my journey.”
Thank you Father for answering our prayers! Please continue to work in our Olivia’s life. Let her hear your voice and see your goodness and let Your joy radiate from her into others to advance your Kingdom! In Jesus Name! Amen!
