A new name

Well last night was awesome! I got baptized, and I would like to thank friends and family for coming out and supporting what God has done in my life. But I wanted to share what I saw later that night. I was in worship with this group of people, and I closed my eyes. I thought back on my baptism, and I saw Jesus baptizing me. It wasn't Chris Madison, it was Christ. Before I was "dunked" I envisioned Christ smiling and saying, "Do you accept the plan I have for you releasing your own plans so that I can give you what I want for you? Do you love me enough to fulfill my calling for your life?" I said, "I do." When I came up out of the water Christ was smiling and he simply said, "I love you...You are MY MESSENGER...Malachi."
