I am getting rebaptized in an hour and all I have to say is.
I am getting baptized into Christianity this time Not into a particular denomination
not into a particular theological path
not into a set of rules but into a faith
my only commitment is that I am turning my will and life over to the care of my higher power
that I will spent time with him
that I seek him in whatever way I can
that when I mess up I will go to him
that I will never give up the race but with his help continue to steer the course that he set me on
and with his help I will win it and be with him in his kingdom someday
I am only welcoming the holy spirit and christ into my life and asking him to live it through me
I don't have to be righteous or holy cuz only he can do that. I accept his ultimate reckless grace and understand that it extends especially to me.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
