S3 E5 | Hermoso Momento: My Ocean Baptism & the Worship Song That Healed Me
I never planned on being baptized again, but God did.
In this deeply personal episode, I share the story of my unplanned baptism in the ocean, the worship song that carried me through heartbreak and change, and the sacred moment where surrender became healing.
Surrounded by community, covered in prayer, and held by Spirit, I said yes to God again—but this time, from a place of deep honesty.
We’ll walk through:
- The surprising moment I chose to be baptized again
- The powerful lyrics of “Hermoso Momento” by Kairo Worship
- The presence of my ex in the prayer circle—and the unexpected peace that followed
- Reflections on the woman with the alabaster jar in Luke 7
- How God stays when others don’t—and how worship became my way back to wholeness
If you’ve ever felt broken, unsure, or overdue for a new beginning, this story is for you.
🕊️ Listen now, breathe deep, and let God meet you at your own hermoso momento.
