I first heard this when a speaker at a large retreat was preaching about a year ago. I stood up in the presence of a thousand others youths and screamed, "amen" with my dear brother. It wasn't until quite recently, though, that that quote actually really tangibly made sense to me.
After leading a worship set for a small congregation a bit ago, a lady shared something with me. She opened up about a vision that she had whilst I was leading worship. As she talked to me, she explained how when I was leading worship and when I was praying, the heavens had opened up and those praises and those prayers had gone right up into heaven. Then, streaming lights began to fall down upon the earth, lighting it up.
I was amazed.
Worship had been awesome and it had been a superb time seeking the Lord, but what she said opened my eyes to something I never imagined. After just walking though a huge season of struggle and being in one at that time, to hear something like that blew my mind.
"The truth is right in front of you. Can you see it?" -Rich Harris
I thank the Lord that He holds onto us though it all.
And, as it says in 2 Timothy 2:13, "if we are faithless, He remains faithful— for He cannot deny Himself."
He is always there.
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble." -Psalm 46:1
