I'd like to share a God Wink with all of you.
Yesterday was an incredible, miraculous, joyous day...
It's one of the most magnificent things to happen in my lifetime.
Joon and I were on Cloud Nine all day, as I'm sure you all were.
We went to bed happy, but well aware there was more work to be done.
This morning I woke up to a song playing in my head.
It was loud and strong.
It was a song I recognized, but didn't know all that well, the kind of song where you only know the tune and part of the lyrics.
The song was Only The Young, by Journey.
Even after I awoke, the chorus kept going through my mind.
I felt compelled to play it, which I did, and to look up the lyrics, which I did.
These are the lyrics...
"Only The Young"
Another night in any town
You can hear the thunder of their cry
Ahead of their time
They wonder why
In the shadows of a golden age
A generation waits for dawn
Brave carry on
Bold and the strong
[Chorus:]
Only the young can say
They're free to fly away
Sharing the same desires
Burnin' like wildfire
They're seein' through the promises
And all the lies they dare to tell
Is it heaven or hell?
They know very well
[Chorus]
Only the young can say
Only the young can say
Only the young can say
Only the young can say
Incredible.
A song written 38 years ago now has a very different, very holy meaning to me.
I feel the Holy Spirit sent this song to me this morning to share with you all.
To let us know, the young, the unborn, need to be saved.
To encourage us to be brave, bold, and strong.
To thank us for what we've done.
To carry on.
We won a great battle yesterday, but the war isn't over yet.
Blessings to you all.
Your Brother In Christ,
Mike
