This video is from Carlos. This was the intro I read before the video…
Danny is a homeless guy in Atlanta who happened to walk up on me while I was shooting the EPK for my new record.
I was singing the song…God Of Second Chances.
Danny walks up…kneels down…starts crying…puts his hands up in the air…and…
I was in tears while watching it, mostly because this was the conversation at the end of the song…
If you listen carefully at the end you hear me saying this to Danny.
“Keep trying to make it man.”
He looked me square in the eye…cocked his head sideways with a confused look on his face…and said,
“Trying to make it? No man. I ain’t trying to make it…I’m making it. Jah puts His soldiers everywhere. Jah says, Yea though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death… So He places some of us, in that valley.”
Read the whole post HERE.
Think about that for a minute…We have this cultural view of success and “making it”, when we might be right where God wants us to be!! That totally changes our view of true success. Would you be willing to be a street soldier for Christ?! I don’t know if I could.
