Thank you H-Squad for the Pokémon Theme Song

 

I had the privilege to be on a Zoom call with my squad a few days back. Late night talks tend to be my favorite because the most random conversations can happen!! Low and behold one of our friends told us he thinks Pokémon’s theme song is actually a song for missions if you tweak the words a bit! 

Tweaked song below: 

“ I want to be the very best,

Like no one ever was.

To catch them is my real test,

To train them is my cause!

(I will travel across the land,

Searching far and wide.

To save these souls to understand

The power that’s inside!)

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

It’s you and me,

I know it’s my destiny!

Jesus Christ 

Oh, you’re my best friend,

In a world we must defend!

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

(A heart so true,

Our courage will pull us through!)

You teach me and I’ll teach you,

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Every challenge along the way,

With courage I will face!

I will battle every day,

To claim my rightful place!

Come with me, the time is right,

There’s no better team!

Arm in arm, we’ll win the fight,

It’s always been our dream!

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

It’s you and me,

I know it’s my destiny!

Jesus Christ 

Oh, you’re my best friend,

In a world we must defend!

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

(A heart so true,

Our courage will pull us through!)

You teach me and I’ll teach you,

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

It’s you and me,

I know it’s my destiny!

Jesus Christ 

Oh, you’re my best friend,

In a world we must defend!

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

(A heart so true,

Our courage will pull us through!)

You teach me and I’ll teach you,

Jesus Christ 

Gotta catch em’ all!

Gotta catch em’ all!

Jesus Christ! “

 

How beautiful is it to be in a community that everyone sees things differently but the main vision is to build up God’s Kingdom. The Pokémon theme song is a beautiful representation of how each person sees the world so differently. I have loved to see what each person on my squad is bringing to the table. The perspectives they have and details, that quiet frankly at times I can miss, are so extraordinary. They way one teammate stops and sees Christ in the breeze in the trees, the next in a Pokémon theme song, then someone describes a detail in a passage of the Bible I have read a million times but have looked over, the next talks about how they saw Christ in a friend donating to their race, how God showed up in a strangers smile, or even the first snowfall of the year! 

 

I have been so joyed by the different stories and perspectives I have been able to hear because it helps remind me to look for God in places I may have not originally thought about! It has taught me to keep my eyes and ears open because even though God may not be mentioned he is so present within our lives! Thank you Squad for sharing your stories and reminding me to always keep an eye out for the unnoticeable places God can be! 

 

Thank you H Squad for a new theme song that reminds me that Jesus is my best friend. I am not going on this world race by myself but with him Hand and Hand trying to Catch them all. There is no better team than one that is arm and arm with God. So Thank you Jesus for this passionate Squad.
