Timmy Gets Baptized

Timmy was a 9 year old boy who loved God. He had been in church all of his life and came every Sunday with his parents. He was even in the youth group and when he came to church he would sit on the front row. He wanted to hear everything that the pastor had to say about Jesus. In Sunday school, he listened to the teacher because he loved all of the stories that she would read out of the children’s bible.

Timmy loved God and he was very interested in the things that went on in the church but he had one problem. He had never been baptized and it was not because his parents would not allow him to, but because he was afraid of water. He only took baths because his parents made him. There was no way that Timmy would get baptized. He had heard the pastor say one Sunday that being baptized was the way to show that you believed in Jesus, and that you were giving yourself to him. Timmy thought that there surely must be other ways to prove that you loved Jesus. ‘Can’t people see that I love Jesus,’ Timmy thought to himself, ‘people see me sitting on the first pew because I want to hear everything that the preacher is saying. I sit there be-cause I want to, not because I have to and my youth minister knows that I love church. I am always at the youth meetings and a lot of times I am the first one there and the last one to leave so, she must know that I love God.

Mom and dad know because they don’t have to make me get up and go to church. Sometimes I even get up before they do. The pastor has to know,’ he told himself. ‘He sees me sitting up on the front seat listening. My friends know that I love Jesus, because I share with them what I have learned in Church. Sometimes I invite them to go with me so, I am pretty sure that I don’t need to get baptized to prove my love for Jesus plus I am only 9 years old.
