I met a young man this week, and I must say he was a mighty inspiration to me.
Nineteen years old, and not afraid to give a beautiful prayer of testimony to Jesus and His great love. Sean is his name, and he plays University football on a business scholarship.
One of the things that impressed me about Sean was how he spoke of his biological father. His love and respect for his daddy were evident, as was his love and respect for Jesus Christ.
Sean’s father is a minister, and it is evident that Sean, due to his father’s influence, has a living, breathing relationship with his Lord and master. I prayed for Sean, after which I asked him to pray for me. And oh wow! The young man offered a heartfelt prayer far beyond touching me. I will remember that prayer always.
It is young men like Sean that give us hope for this broken old world.
Father God, O Holy one, we come to you with happy hearts that young people all over the world are hearing and answering your call. Please walk with each of us, for this is the greatest Christmas gift you can give any of us. We love you, O Holy one. In Jesus’ wonderful and perfect name, we ask it, Amen.
