Our Daughter's Baptism and Testimony

My name is Morgan and this is my testimony.  I was 5 years old and was coming home from my aunt’s house.  I asked my mom about my cousin’s grandpa who we all called Pop-Pop Floyd – he died in a well-drilling accident 3 days after Christmas in 2007. I asked her how I can see Pop-Pop Floyd again.  My mom said you can only see him if you trust Jesus as your Savior.  I wanted to see Pop-Pop Floyd and Jesus.  I accepted Jesus in my heart and I asked Him to forgive me.  I may have only been 5 but I know I’m a Christian. 

Two months before I came to know Jesus, I was in a teeter-totter accident and 3 of my front teeth came out.  Six months after I came to know Jesus I broke my collarbone.   I cut my finger a year later and needed it glued back together.  I broke my collarbone again right before I went into 2nd grade.  One year ago tomorrow on January 28, I was in the Emergency Room with a rapid heartbeat of 230 beats a minute.  A few weeks later I had heart surgery.  I ended my 2nd grade year with a concussion from a bicycle accident.  

It’s not always easy to be a Christian, especially when bad things like that happen.  It was hard moving to Montreal from Pennsylvania this past September, but I’ve been reading my devotions every day and that helps. 

My favorite verse is John 3:16, For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.
