Inspiration

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

People involved in the arts want to inspire others in some way. Recently I played music at a conference in between meetings where my desire was to make an impact and touch lives with music.

Instead it was me that was inspired. Over 3 days I met people who want to make a difference in this world and in eternity.

I met a comedian who tells clean jokes and sends free DVD’s to the troops abroad (and he’s funny!)

I met a young couple with a little girl who want to leave the comforts of the US and serve less fortunate children in South America.

I met people who want to bridge the gap and improve racial relations within the church.

I met people who share the gospel with boldness and love in countries where it is not welcomed.

I met people with the conviction of telling an age old story with relevance without compromising the integrity of the message itself and this is just to name a few.

Over and over again I met people with stories of hope and dreams of inspiring others. Not perfect people, but people giving their all for what they believe. Very inspiring.
