    Thats awesome story! In fact it hits so close to home even though theyre totally different theres one thing that remains the same. I’m trying real hard to keep the faith but somehow i still feel lost and cant figure out what he wants me to do.

    @yeng209 – Keep on praying for them. You have to know that everything is in God’s timing and God always provides just enough that we need. We also need to do our part. Such as, go and find a job, also – our future depends on the choices that we make beforehand. I’m not saying the homeless all are on drugs, are alcoholics, but you have to consider, the majority of them did put themselves in that position, or someone put them in that position.

    This video has helped me with my healing from ptsd that resulted from being molested most of my child hood and later on raped by 4 men. It is so meaningful and deep to me. I can listen to it and cry and know that I am safe and they can not hurt me anymore!

  15. This is a beautiful …
    This is a beautiful testament. I’m just a little reserved about relating faith to wealth, because many faithful Christians are suffering and it’s through our suffering that we also share in the glory. Many sick people are not made well, but they continue to receive bountiful gifts from God.
    But I’m very happy that the faith of the man concerned, through his experiences of suffering has grown and this is very, very lovely and teaches us a lot about our priorities.
    Praise the Lord
    Amen

    Incredible song…probably the most radio friendly song I’ve ever heard from Phil…I think this is going to be huge…great story great message…I sent this out to so many of my friends that can use a reminder of who it is they call their Savior.
    Wonderful song…great work! Praise to God!

    He is definitely one of my favorite songwriters/singers.

    I love that he can stir up more emotion with just his words and guitar than any stage performance. Some of the secular artists today need to learn what music is about again…

    did any of you watch the live video that just ended? anyone figure out the chords to this song yet?
