David Phelps

As I write this I am listening to David Phelps sing this song, There is a River. If you are not familiar with David you are missing out on one of the purist voices, today. He is outstanding.

I met him a few years ago in Columbus, Ohio at one of their concerts. He was very gracious and we chatted for a little while. Davis is a "home run hitter."  Listen to "Let Freedom Ring" and you will agree. He hits it out of the park at the end. He left the group for a while, and they did not sing it while he was gone, it was his song, no one could do it like he did.

I often sit here on this couch, with my laptop and headphones, watching TV, but listening to some good old gospel songs.

I have never had an "experience" like my Grandfather did. One Sunday morning, he was a young boy, but going up the steps of his old country church, he was overcome, struck by the lightening of God, or whatever you want to call it, but from that moment on, he knew he was to be a preacher. I have never had such an experience.

I thank Him every morning for getting me through the night, and to help me get through the day. At night, I thank him for the day, and to help me get through the night. I ask him, often, for help. I don't run around town carrying a sign, asking viewers to "Honk if you love Jesus" or something to that extent. I honk and wave at him.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all, now and evermore. Amen.

I can copy that and drop it in here ...... not sure if I could lead an Army, reciting that ..... I would like to have a closer relationship, but not sure how to do it ...................
