The Best Gift | Man Surprises Wife By Being Baptized Before Anniversary

Byron Corbett

Milind Meshram attended the Richardson Seventh-day Adventist Church for 14 years with his wife, Carmen, a member. As the years passed, he always had an excuse for not committing his life to Jesus.

Something changed this past October and Meshram completed the church’s contact card, expressing an interest in Bible studies. As we began to study, I asked Meshram if he had ever accepted Jesus. He admitted he was afraid to turn everything over to Jesus, so I asked if he would like to kneel right then and ask Jesus into his heart. It was an extremely moving experience when Meshram surrendered his life to Jesus and received Him into his heart. He truly felt his burdens lifted. 

A few weeks later Meshram was baptized on Dec. 28, 2019, a day before their wedding anniversary. Meshram has a new smile on his face and a vibrant testimony to share of what Jesus has done in his life.
