Tanya's Baptism

Hello everyone. Yesterday I had the privilege of meeting a professor of genetic psychology. I did not even know they even existed. Her name is Tanya and not only is Tanya a brilliant woman , who is Jewish, but she loves Jesus. Her face just glows with the love of Jesus Christ. Tanya also is very ill. She is suffering from the effects of stomach cancer, and has Parkinson’s disease. How I got acquainted with her is through Mira, a good friend and a Messiah Jew who works with Jews for Jesus, Mira has shared with so many Jews that have become Christians. Mira asked me if I would baptize Tanya. And so Natasha, Mira and I went to visit Tanya, and celebrate her Baptism. As we talked about baptism and the Lord, Tanya's face just glowed, and she would weep with joy about the Lord. She has such love for the Lord, even though her body is so sick. I had nothing to teach her about the Lord, just spending time with her and seeing Jesus alive in her life was powerful.
Since Tanya is so sick, I just dunked her hands in the water and baptized her in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, it was very moving as Tanya began to weep and wash her face in the water, so joyous that she could be baptized. Tanya has a great influence with friends and colleagues, pray that her premature illness would be used to bring them to the knowledge of the Savior, Pray also that God would heal her.

There is a place of fellowship with the Lord where only those who have experienced such suffering in their lives can experience.

Good Bless, d
