Spontaneous Synchronization

Wobble
On June 10th, 2000, the Millennium foot bridge was opened to pedestrian traffic to cross the river Thames, in London, England. As crowds filled the bridge, it wobbled dangerously back and forth. This rather expensive bridge, was built to the tune of eighteen million pounds: what could possibly be going wrong, and why the wobble?

Brief history lesson
In 1831, seventy-four men were marching across a suspension bridge in England, and it suddenly collapsed under their synchronized footsteps. Sixty men fell into the water and sustained multiple injuries, AND fortunately, none died. From that point forward, the British army was ordered to break step when crossing bridges. You can look this information up and watch videos on this subject, like I did. There's a logical explanation for this phenomenon, that will satisfy the scientist in you. I am more of a psychosocial kind of scientist, and so I will leave you to your devices, in understanding the physics that I simply, cannot explain! 

Metronomes and humans too
One of my best friends sent me a video of five metronomes set on a board, with a pop can under both ends of the board. Each metronome was activated individually, and they ticked out of time initially, but gradually, they spontaneously synchronized. It is fascinating to watch, and it is delightful to hear the back and forth sounds of the five becoming one unified click click at either side of their range of motion: just like it is some kind of wonderful, to see and hear humans synchronized, in dance, in step, and in song... until of course, their synchronized actions become treacherous?

Recall the bridges
When we consider the bridge of 1831, and then the more modern bridge of 2000, we see what lock stepping with the person in front, in behind, and side to side of us can do: while we synchronize, over what could be troubled waters, we cause a wobble that threatens to drop the bridge out from under our feet. This, dear reader, is what much of the population has done. 

The globalists
Now let us consider the globalists, lock stepping with one another, making demands that the population they propose to own, do as they are bid in unison too: from this view, we see that we are in a precarious position. The desire to synchronize with one another is very strong, and we know intuitively, that there is power in numbers. The drum that has been beaten, that we are all in this together, is exactly what sad and lonely people have been longing to experience, with a sense of community and belonging that has been missing from their lives. It just so happens, that marketing masters have capitalized on this human need, when fear, anxiety, and depression, have been growing like thorny weeds for godless decades. 

The harvest is ripe on two fronts, and the synchronization is also happening, on two fronts:

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares, among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn (Matthew 13:24-30)

Out of step
If you will recall the remedy for safe passage across a suspension bridge, you will see how necessary being out of step is for preservation of life. While armies are ordered to be synchronized in some circumstances, in others, it is necessary to break step with one another, to maintain the whole. While the wicked rulers ordered deadly lock stepping, and many unwitting souls abided, those that receive instruction from a different Voice, refused to do their bidding. 

Spontaneously synchronize
We cannot help it💘
While we, like metronomes activated at different times, initially clicked at our own
pace, it did not take long for us to spontaneously synchronize with one another. We could not help ourselves dear reader: we are one body, the body of Christ, and we naturally, magnetically, gloriously discover each another, speak our native tongue, which is the Word of God, and we find ourselves miraculously lock stepping without wobble. 

We are out of step with the worldly ones, but in step with our Saviour. We have been preserved for a purpose, and it is not for our own survival, since that has already been secured, it is for the salvation of those that have yet to understand the danger, yet to understand that friendship of the world, is enmity with God. We have been given a ministry of reconciliation, and while we remain, we will do the work assigned us, and share The Good News with those God sends to share the bridge with:
  • The two sides are real
  • The lock stepping is real
  • The wobbly bridge we found ourselves on, is real
  • The wheat and the tares, (the sheep and the goats); the metaphors representing humans are real
  • The devil is real; his workers of iniquity are real
  • God is real; his children by adoption through the saving grace of Jesus Christ, are real
And so, is spontaneous synchronization, praise God. It is so real, that you can choose to break step with those that desire to harm you and yours, and start lock stepping with the many of us, that want only to walk in harmony with the sweet sound of our Saviours voice:

The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing (Zephaniah 3:17)

Carry on, Christian soldier💖
