GORSHIP

It's late and I have an earlier breakfast date with my bigbro but I know that if I don't do this entry now then I will put if off later when I will forget stuff that happened tonight.
So what happened tonight? Scream the Prayer 2008- a hardcore concert tour me and my lil'bro both went to. So I've been to several hardcore shows before this one- but this one was different.
The music was hardcore and there was plenty of moshing- that was the same- but it was the message that the bands gave that just stood out like a hot chili pepper inside an apple pie...
Right from the beginning of the 10-band show, I noticed that some bands gathered together to pray before starting their sets or even just talking about Jesus Christ in between their songs. What struck me was seeing an older man in the crowd, next to me in the 3rd row from the barricade, rather than throwing his fist in the air as the bands played- he held up in the air a good-sized crucifix that he wore around his neck.
The bands that definitely stood out to me- War of Ages, Impending Doom, and Sleeping Giant.
Even after all the bands played, some guys from ID and SG came down to the floor- and started praying for people who needed it. I couldn't help but stay along and pray with them and lay hands on the kids who came forward for prayer...May the Truth and the Light of God continue to infest the Hardcore- it needs it bad!
I felt so honored and blessed to being to talk and chat with Tommy (in the white) and Brooke (far left)- the singers of SG and ID. Being prayed for by Tommy was just so moving; he recited scripture and even gave me references that would help me out.
HAHA! I never expected to get the power of prayer at a hardcore concert venue...

God and the Spirit have no boundaries!!- W O R D

*the tour just started- if interested to attending a show- do it! See God work in ways that you've never seen before.

DON'T JUDGE- BUT LOVE.
