Hey Hey Hey!
I studied about Christ and the symbolism there is in baptism and Christ's life. In Romans 6 it talks about the symbolism between baptism and Christ. It is so amazing the way Heavenly Father has set up baptism and knew that we would be able to understand it better by the symbolic meaning with it.
It is neat that as we are submerged in the water we are burying our old self and old practices that weren't in harmony with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and as we come out of the water we are becoming new and walking in a newness of life.
Baptism and the opportunity to renew our baptismal covenant each week by partaking of the sacrament shows to me the love our Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ have for me and for everyone. They want us to succeed and want to help us and are always there to help us. This has made me want to better prepare myself for the sacrament and remember that each week as I am repenting and striving to do my best, that I can walk in a newness of life and become closer and closer to my Heavenly Father and my wife and my family. I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Have a great Weekend!
