So I’ve been sick for two years… it’s been horrible… I’ve been gradually getting better over these last months…
A few weeks ago… I made huge progress… felt like I got healed…
And today… I feel it in every way…
I’m gaining weight again… I’ve been working out daily for almost two weeks now… and in a short time… I’m putting on muscle… I’m looking better than ever… I’m feeling strong… I feel like myself again…
And I can’t praise God enough… Oh thank You… Holy Father…
I’ve had people all over the world praying for me… pulling for me… and my girlfriend’s faithful prayers… Oh how grateful I am… thankful… humbled by the entire experience… Oh how happy I am… that it’s over…
because there were moments I truly wasn’t sure I’d ever get back here…
Honestly.. my faith wavered over these past few years… I was so sick… I lost nearly 60 pounds… I was told it was cancer… then told it wasn’t… and to this day… I still don’t know what it was…
I just know it was hard… a daily struggle to not give up…
But now…
Because of my God — I am back…
Not just back… but renewed… Stronger… Better… Alive in a way I hadn’t felt in years…
And today… I stand here in gratitude — the fear is gone…
All glory to God — the healer… the restorer… the One who carried me when I couldn’t carry myself…
Amen and Amen.
Forever and ever…

Sidewalk Prophets 🎶 You Love Me Anyway 🎶 Keep Making Me…
Some bands don’t start on stages… they start in small rooms… borrowed amps… quiet prayers… and long drives…
Sidewalk Prophets began in 2003 on a college campus in Indiana… just a few friends writing songs about faith doubt and grace while playing worship nights and whatever doors opened… They toured in vans… played churches and coffee shops… and learned how to carry songs into real lives before anyone was listening…
That slow road mattered… because when their music finally reached the wider world… it already knew how to sit with people…
Two songs from that journey still hit me deep… and honestly… I think these are two of the greatest Christian songs ever… I know… that’s saying a lot… hey… it’s just my opinion… 😁
🎶 You Love Me Anyway (These Simple Truths 2009 — single 2011)
🎶 Keep Making Me (Live Like That 2012)
I hope yall enjoy… thank you for your time… have a blessed Sunday…
Hey yall… Happy Sunday.. These next guys are one of my all-time favorites.. So many great songs.. So much depth.. They can rock hard or be gentle on the ears—and they do both beautifully…
They’re from Portland.. Oregon.. formed in 1999.. and started as a campus worship band..
They’re known as Kutless… and yeah—they’re bad#ss for Jesus 😎😁
I’ve got two songs for you today.. “All The Words” and “Shut Me Out..”
I didn’t even realize this until now.. but both of these songs pretty much describe my blog.. Even my tagline comes straight from the lyrics of “All The Words…” And fun fact—that song was featured on an episode of Scrubs back in the day…
Alright… I’m done talking now 😄 Just listen and enjoy… And I truly appreciate yall so much.. tyty… 😎`.°- thinking of yall today…
“Psalm 62” by Shane & Shane comes from their 2007 Pages album.. and it’s built straight out of the Scripture itself—‘my soul waits in silence for God alone..’ The song carries the Old Testament language of God being our rock.. refuge.. and salvation.. set to a modern worship sound that makes ancient truth feel close.. It’s one of those songs written for seasons of waiting and uncertainty—when you need to remember that no matter what shakes around you.. He doesn’t.. I hope yall enjoy.. I’ve also included some more great videos from these guys to help you get to know them.. they are special to me.. hope yall have a great day.. I’m thinking of you 🙏

Story of how they got started 👇 and some of Shane Barnard’s testimony
“”He’s the only one strong enough to lean🎶 My heaviness against the weight of all my sin🎶 Falling on a rock.. leaning on a fortress..🎶 Oh the wall of God.. Jesus.. He won’t move””
“”On God I rest my salvation🎶 My fortress shall not be shaken My mighty rock and my glorious🎶 I lay my head upon His chest.. on God I rest””
