Its Gonna be Alright
I'm amazed at some of the people I have had the privilege to meet in the course of my life as a minister of the gospel. On Sunday we were talking about the great burdens people carry. I'm often moved to tears when I see pictures like this one. In India and Peru, people literally carrying on their backs burdens that they hope will eventually feed themselves and their family. The human capacity to deal with major disappointments and still survive is quite inspirational. When this is mixed with faith it moves from inspirational to the miraculous. The power of the Holy Spirit at work in a man or woman's life can turn feeble weak willed people into what can only be called spiritual giants. Too often their stories are never told because of the hurt and pain that would be involved in the retelling. So if your going through a time of trial or disappointment don't allow yourself the luxury of thinking you will never survive. Yes you will and you'll be even stronger. A few years ago I re-recorded a song I sang in the 70s. It was written by a friend of mine Jim Sommerville, when re-recording the song I asked his permission to change the lyrics in the verses. Here it is I hope it is encouragement to someone out there tonight who just might be feeling a little vulnerable. Click Here
