2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"
Ephesian 4:22-24
"You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness."
Romans 6:2-7
"Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that , just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin-- because anyone who has died has been freed from sin."

A week later I still can't believe that my son has been baptized. It is one of the best gifts a parent can receive from a child. I do have to admit that I am beside myself, I am ecstatic, and have fallen in love with my son all over again! I see that he is really growing and he is truly understanding the WORD. He is already a mighty warrior for the Lord, I can't wait to see what he becomes as a man. Elijah is maturing before my eyes, and it is a beautiful thing to experience.

You've got a bug, too? :) I usually refer to mine as a stink bug though! LOL His name is Isaac, but I call him Zachariah at times. Isaac just doesn't have the oomph that Zachariah does when you need their attention.
