Luke 15:4-7
I am extremely happy to say that one of my favorite people has made a very important decision, a decision that literally brings tear of joy to my eyes.
Stephen made the decision to accept Christ in his life!!!
It's the best call I have received in a while.
We have been praying for Stephen, and the Lord saw it fit to prepare his heart. Praise God!!!
In the end, it's all about moments like this. It's all about developing hearts already in pursuit of God while simultaneously being a rendezvous point for our young people just starting the journey.
Please join us in praying for our new brother. Stephen, words cannot express how proud I am of you. You are an inspiration to me.
I wanna dedicate the paraphrased lyrics of the song below to Stephen. It is one of my favorites.
He loves to hear the wind sing
As it whistles through the pines on mountain peaks
He loves to hear the raindrops
As they splash to the ground in a magic melody
He smiles in sweet approval
As the waves crash to the rocks in harmony
Creation joins in unity to sing in majestic symphonies
But His favorite song of all
Is the song of the redeemed
When lost sinners now made clean
Lift their voices loud and strong
When those purchased by His blood
Lift to Him a song of love
Nothing more He'd rather hear
Nor so pleasing to His ear
As His favorite song of all
He loves to hear the angels as they sing
"Holy, holy is the Lamb"
(Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb)
Heaven's choirs sing in harmony
Lift up praises to the great "I Am"
(Hallelujah, Hallelujah)
But He lifts His hands for silence
When the weakest saved by grace begins to sing
And a million angels listen as a newborn soul sings
"I have been redeemed"
It's not just melodies and harmonies
that catches His attention
It's not clever lines and phrases
that cause Him to stop and listen
But when any heart set free
Washed and bought by Calvary begins to sing
Holy, holy, holy is the Lamb
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
