Big day!

Today was a big day for me spirituality. I came forward in church to be baptized. I wasn't as scared as I thought I would be. I was afraid I would cry or maybe have close to an anxiety attack, but nothing like that happened. I did forget my zip code when I was writing my address down and my knees were shaking. My new church family was very kind and welcoming.

I have had anxiety about the alter call for many years. I feel more comfortable now. I went to the front during revival service today and prayed as well.The first time I went down two years ago at a different church I was so scared I didn't know what to pray or anything, at that point for me it was just making the gesture of coming forward. So anyone out there who has a terrifying fear of the alter call, it is ok you will and can have the strength to do it.Pray about it and when you are ready just do it, you will not regret it!
