This is a good start. You describe your emotions during the experience. Needs some polishing, though.
I really like that you emphasized that baptism is only the beginning and not a once-for-all magic solution to the sin problem. Perhaps making this piece at least 2 if not 3 smaller paragraphs would make it easier to read. But your placing baptism as an act of obedience, a sign of commitment is a good reminder that it's just the beginning of a walk, of a committment-a sort of marriage ceremony with Jesus.

But it was not in this moment which came my salvation. It was only a sign, an act to proclaim my found faith in Christ. To show the world that I believed.

Amen. Well said.
Expanded a bit and this would be a very convincing devotional to someone condidering taking the leap of faith. Great writing, good descriptions, keep sharing.
