Its now 1030pm, Tuesday night. Still can’t digest what took place at Collide last Saturday. Six months of tough preparation culminated in a 4 hour gathering that seemed too short. It was a long and hard process – preparing, practicing, getting the word out on the streets. Much sweat and sacrifices made by all involved. Many times we fell short, but God miraculously pulled us through. Whatever happened on that day seemed so much bigger than all of us, and at the end of the day, no one could boldly claim “we did it!” … Yes we did what we had to, we did what we could, but God took what was in our hands and upsized it to a G-O-D thing.
God’s presence saturated the place right from the start. I guess my favorite moment of worship was when the line “until all that’s left is You” was repeated over and over again by the 650+ crowd. A spontaneous cry of this generation wanting to deny self and follow Jesus. What an awesome moment!
Something new was birthed that day. It was not just a cool event with a bunch of youth groups jumping and singing together in one place. But it was a generation gathered in desperate pursuit for God. With hearts as one, hungry for the things of Him, worshipping, praying, giving, and crying out to God. Longing to see a spiritual awakening sweep across this land.
Collide the gathering may be over, but Collide the movement is just beginning…
