The Best of On My Mind Part 1: The Baptisim

My anniversary as a blogger will be here next week. To celebrate this on line anniversary I will be reposting some of what I consider the best of what I have put on this since October 2005. The day of the anniversary I will have an on line party and linking to the sites that I go to almost every day.
Then we will begin year 3 of On My Mind.
So tell your family. Tell your friends and link everyday to keep up with the countdown to the anniversary day.
Today here is a poem that I wrote and posted in 2005.

This is a poem that I wrote describing the time I was baptized.

I was so young when I first heard,
how the Word can set you free.
It talked of Jesus.
It talked of love.
It talked of Calvary.

The walk down the aisle was just a small trial.
Then I took the preacher's hand.
Men talked with me and asked me questions.
They were sure I would go to the Promised Land.

The time went by and then the day came.
I was dunked under water
and when I was let up Jesus knew my name.

He knew it from the start.
The rest was up to me.
To let Him in my heart
and express my thanks for Calvary.
