On Wednesday, something incredible happened. Before we went on stage for worship, Tim talked to the band. I hope I never forget what he said and I hope I think about it every time I go on stage. He told me he was watching a DVD of Jon Egan. Jon said that when he is worshiping he wants to out worship every kid in the room. He wants to lead by example. Jon goes after everything with abandon. That was our prayer that night before going on stage that night. That if we go after God and truly seek an encounter with him right there then others will see and follow.
That is exactly what happened. Teens all over the room were pressing in and seeing how much God loves them. They where having an experience with him. They saw what can happen when you press in and go after God with all your heart. I hope and pray that God makes himself real to them each and every day and that those kids know that what ever they are going through or what ever they do God loves them more than they can begin to imagine.
It really showed me how much can happen when God moves. It showed me what can happen when people can truly seek his face. What can happen when people can put God first and put every distraction and situation behind them. It showed me how passionate of a generation we have coming up out of jr. high and high school. It showed me how much these guys want to see something real. A lot of these kids have never felt a true true love in their life and they felt it on Wednesday. I pray that they live this out in their lives and that they show others what is capable as long as people are passionate about God.
This night was one of the most incouraging nights of my life and I know I will never forget it.
