Baptism

God has sent me a question about baptism. Someone asked me if I had been baptized. I replied, I was told I didn't have to. Then, they ask if I wanted to be baptized.

I think it just has to happen at the right time. It's not something you can just plan to do as an adult. So much has happened by now it’s hard to make that decision. It's more serious to me now than when I was a new born baby, my parents made that decision, not me. My parents chose not to baptize me because they didn't consent me in sin. Then, I have to think, did they know for sure what was right at the time, because they were friends with a family of people who called themselves Christians but do not live faithfully. But now they are becoming stronger and learning as much as they can by going to church and studying the Bible more, and so am I. So many experiences in life have changed the outcome of how I have been touched by God's grace, knowledge and love. I've learned so much from Him in the past 3 years. Would baptizing make a difference? That is the answer I need to find out for myself.
