This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It’s adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike “What’s next, Papa?” God’s Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. – Romans 8:15 The Message
The baptism celebration was amazing; new life in Jesus! A new beginning, coming out of the water...
But we can easily miss out on going forward, like a scuba diver retrieving from the waters what has died with Christ. What are you tempted to pull back out of the water? Anxiety? Unbelief? Bitterness? Lies? Rejection? Drama? Lust? Pride?
Take off the scuba gear. No need to tend that watery grave of baptism. You're a new creation in Jesus and the old nature has died. Time to move on with Jesus and with others, adventurously expectant.
