Large crowds have been gathering around the world to honor the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk. In an almost unexplainable outpouring of grief people from all walks of life have gathered by the thousands to pay their respects.
But more than that- the gospel message so important to Charlie seems to have ignited in a way no one expected. And as I think about all that has transpired in the last few days I can only marvel at what God is doing through this terrible tragedy.
But what comes next? The shooter was arraigned in a Utah court today with the State seeking for what most expected- the death penalty. And while the wheels of justice grind slowly in cases such as this it was apparent to anyone looking at the perpetrator that he was already dead … from the inside out. A tragedy in and of itself.
And while I believe the perpetrator is fully accountable for his actions and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law I grieve for so many young people lost to this madness. The devil is a liar, thief and a murderer and stealing our children is top on his list. I understand the pain – I have a grandaughter lost to this as well.
I’m truly hoping for the rapture Tuesday September 23. I’m praying that the gospel will go forth so powerfully on the day of Charlie’s Memorial that it will leave no doubt in anyone’s mind that God is at work bringing in a last minute end times harvest.
But if it does not happen this way – we will not be discouraged – we will not be dismayed – instead we will continue where Charlie left off. The mantle has been passed and there are a million Charlies ready to pick it up and run!
