There is two people that I am referring too when I say that. The first one is one of my mom's customers from work. She is 92 years old and she is very sick and at the end of her life. My wish is that you pray for her to help her suffering end and for God to take care of her and for her to get to know Him if she hasn't already. The second prayer request that I have is for me since I am meeting with my pastor tomorrow. Please pray that I will have the courage to go into church tomorrow and tell him what my concerns are and not be ashamed to do so as well asking the questions that I need to ask. I know that second prayer request might seem silly but I am actually quite nervous and embarrassed to admit things that I'm not all that sure about like whether or not I am truly saved and how I can strengthen my relationship with Jesus Christ and get to know Him and better and will my Baptism help that. I even admitted before in Bible study that I don't even know how to read and study the Bible correctly. So yeah, I could use all the prayers that I can get as well as Maryann. (my mom's friend that I mentioned before) Please pray that God will give us both the strength we need.
 
Hi April. Will be thinking and praying for you today. You are right to ask questions. Prayers for Maryann too. God be with you. The Pastor may suggest to give you bible studies, which would be great.

Hi HR, This is your opportunity to ask those things you do not know, While godly men can direct you through the Scriptures, only God can give the increase. and Yes, get baptized, following after Christ in His death (as we die to self) and raised in His resurrection and likeness (as a new creation) by the indwelling Holy Spirit. I'am praying with the brotherhood of believers for you and Mary Ann.
Love you in the Lord

Well guys this is it. Today is the day that I make my grandparents proud of me as I discuss my Baptism with my pastor and ways to have a better and closer relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Hopefully after today I will be more assured in my salvation. Because whether or not it's immediately after I pass or after the second coming (I am not really sure which at this point) I want Jesus to be there waiting for me at Heaven's gates welcoming me home before I give my grandma and pawpaw a HUGE hug knowing that we will never be separated again.
