Save Us From These Comforts – Danny’s Story
Save us from these comforts.
Break us of our need for the familiar
Spare us any joy that’s not of You
And we will worship You
This is one of my favorite choruses on my upcoming album.
It brings out strong reactions in people.
I’m finding 2 reactions the most popular.
1. What? Really? C’mon. You don’t really want to sing that.
2. Oh my God. This is the chorus that my church has needed to sing for years. I can’t sing it enough. BREAK US LORD!!!
Through my conversations with the reactionaries I am finding some things to be consistent.
Those who are comfortable in their faith really aren’t hip with too much disturbance and disruption in their mojo.
I get it.
If things are good. If things are stable, why ask God to save us from these comforts?
And those who are desiring something…”more”…from whatever it is they are searching for, are singing this chorus until their voices give out.
Neither is wrong. Neither is right.
But I do know this.
I grow in my faith the most when I am disturbed and disrupted.
I get a spiritual fat @** when I’m not.
This chorus is taken from a book of Puritan prayers.
Those guys wanted something extra.
Something I don”t quite understand. Or didn’t.
Until I met Danny.
Danny is a homeless guy in Atlanta who happened to walk up on me while I was shooting the EPK for my new record.
I was singing the song…God Of Second Chances.
Danny walks up…kneels down…starts crying…puts his hands up in the air…and…
If you listen carefully at the end you hear me saying this to Danny.
“Keep trying to make it man.”
He looked me square in the eye…cocked his head sideways with a confused look on his face…and said,
“Trying to make it? No man. I ain’t trying to make it…I’m making it. Jah puts His soldiers everywhere. Jah says, Yea though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death… So He places some of us, in that valley.”
Game, set, match…
Save us from these comforts.
Break us of our need for the familiar
Spare us any joy that’s not of You
And we will worship You
Carlos
RAIN IT DOWN
And God speaks…
Loudly
Makes me wonder if God asked me to be a soldier on the streets…would I do it? We I reside in the valley to help others?
I am much less quick to judge the homeless now. Whom I am to so quickly label them as “have-nots”?
Tahnk you.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Danny was an angel is disguise.
Great post man.
We are entertaining them.
very very cool. one God, one Creator, one Father. well done, when is that album coming out ?
EP. Jan 26th
Umm…wow. Just wow.
That was pretty sic dude.
Love those divine appointments.
And can’t wait to get my hands on that song bro.
By the way, I think you need to bring Danny in for the album on that one!
YES Bobby…just WOW…
that was great…
Yes sir
Well what do you know…looks like God just wrote the remix for the song.
Awesome.
Yup. Now we just gotta find Danny
WOW!!!!!!!!!!! That was amazing!!!!!!!!!! You’re awesome. Definitely appreciate your posts and how real you are.
“jah puts His soldiers everywhere”
that did it for me…
Seriously.
So real. God continues to be awesome! When we realize how blessed we are it doesn’t matter where we are in life personally, God is God and we are in His hands. I’m so glad you got to experience this first hand and that you allowed us to get a glimpse of this. God knows where to put people, His soldiers are truly everywhere.
His soldiers are everywhere
wow! what an AMAZING experience that must have been! just watching it brings tears to my eyes.
“So He places some of us, in that valley” such confidence in God’s sovereignty, awesome. I needed that reminder.
I watch it over and over and over again.
Chills……
Me too. Thanks for stopping by.
wow. Amazing! I really love danny’s voice. you should hire him Carlos! greetings all the way from Venezuela. God bless
We are actually looking for him to see if he can remix it.
As if the sun rising doesn’t reveal God’s presence enough, He just did it another way right here….awesome.
Entertaining angels.
How absolutely powerful.
Agreed. I’m reminded of how much I should be grateful for and how my stuff does not equal happiness
amazing. oh that my response to others worshipping would be to bow and worship…i mean really, who does that? who walks up in the middle of someone filming something and just kneels and worships?
and friend, what a sweet gift of God to you to get a small taste of the fruits of your obedience. he delights in you.
That was gorgeous. I think Danny is an amazing example of the freedom God has to offer all of us if we are willing to walk with him.
Amen a thousand times.
Wow…
What book was that line from. I need more of that.
art, i’m just guessing, but The Valley of Vision is probably where it came from.
http://www.amazon.com/Valley-Vision-collection-Puritan-Devotions/dp/0851512283
“Hallelujah is the highest praise…”
Wow. Am I living my life as a hallelujah to God?
Am I living my life so that others will see the God I am praising?
(Thank you so much for posting this. I had to peel myself off the floor and then mop up my tears.)
Speechless.
Great post! I’ll go to bed tonight with those words in my head. One God, One Creator! Beautiful moment orchestrated by God. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Beautiful.
Los,
I like the chorus and I can’t wait for the album. I hope we sing it at my church, but my pastor already hates “Sweetly Broken” so we may have to sneak it in (wouldn’t be the first time). The Puritans might not admit it, but they got that prayer from Thomas Aquinas (who probably got it from Francis of Assisi):
May I not rejoice in anything
unless it leads me to You;
may I not be saddened by anything
unless it turns me from You.
May I desire to please no one,
nor fear to displease anyone,
but You.
May all transitory things, O Lord,
be worthless to me
and may all things eternal
be ever cherished by me.
May any joy without You
be burdensome for me
and may I not desire anything
else besides You.
May all work, O Lord,
delight me when done for Your sake
and may all repose not centered in You
be ever wearisome for me.
It’s from a longer prayer called “For Ordering a Life Wisely.” It’s one of my favorites to pray, so I posted it on my blog a while back: http://mikeraburn.wordpress.com/2009/06/29/prayer-for-ordering-a-life-wisely/.
Thanks for the thoughts, esp. Danny’s.
Mike
Love it!!! Praise the Lord!
You can’t script stuff like this.
For me it was Larry.
It’s amazing how we can randomly and spontaneously love and serve each other and how God can totally rock our worlds when we’re open and yield to the prompting of his Spirit.
That was awesome!!!!!!! For someone to just jump in a song like that is talented!!
After a really tough day for myself I needed to read this but I also needed to see this video.
Perfect timing on this video and hearing from God.
Thanks for sharing, even when you are on Vacation.
no sweat.
Awesome! Lately, my life has fallen into the second category, and “break my heart for the things that break Your heart” has been my prayer.
God continues to amaze me with the people he brings into our lives. This was easily the highlight of my week so far.
wow bro…if we could take that to heart…I think so often the comforts do keep us from serving Him..
Save us from those comforts
I was going to say “once in a lifetime” but I wonder if this could be a much more frequent event if I would cross the street without shutting my eyes and holding my breath. I hope you find him again. Though, I guess he found you.
WOW!!! Talk about a “God moment” caught on tape!!! Very possibly the coolest video I’ve ever seen!
Amazing video in so many ways. One of the most pure, honest acts of worship I’ve seen in a long time.
I had a conversation kind of like that with a fisherman while on a mission trip to Andros Island. I was watching the sunrise and he came up and talked for a bit. The guy had a story and said that after living in the United States for a couple of years and coming back home, he appreciated what God had provided for him on Andros….. He lived in a one-room shack. A reminder that I need to shut up when my satellite signal goes out.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq6U7MC8eUw
Last week, we sat in a group in Church & heard about the hard work of our new ‘community outreach worker’ who has, for the first time in our Church history, REALLY made ground in the neighbouring housing estate………….its the best known estate in the county, for all the wrong reasons………..
to cut a long story short, someone asked if “those people” were out of the middle of “that place” would they have a better life? Would they be happy?
The reply reflected what Danny said, thanks for the reminder
inspiring….
Carlos, Hallelujah is all I can say. How blessed was I by your song and your heart for Danny….yes indeed we need to be Saved from our Comforts, this was True Worship in it’s purest form…..Thanks for humbling me!!!!!
That was truly one of the most beautiful things I have seen in my life. As I sit here with tears streaming down my face my prayer to God is when I get fat and happy in my faith he would bring me back to this moment and show me what true worship and relationship looks like. What a divine appointment, indeed.
Carlos, I’ve been reading your blog for a couple of years now and this post is by far the most amazing thing you have ever posted. I see God working in your life and busting out in a million new ways as you set out on yet another adventure.
Thanks for living a fabulous story.
Oh, to live with such bountiful joy in the midst of suffering, humility without shame and faith where trust has not been proven.
Tremendous.
Thank you.
I keep trying to come up with something profound and cool to say. Got nothin’. I’ve just been encouraged exponentially by a homeless man 600 miles away. Nice.
wow, wow, wow!!!!!!!!!
THIS will preach.
seriously. i have no words. just amazing.
(also now i’m singing his little melody over and over in my head. can’t get it out. not that i mind…)
Even better the second time around!
Do you know how many times I’ve listened to this??? It keeps getting better…
I’m ashamed to say that Danny’s last words were more discouraging than encouraging to me right now. Danny’s one special guy, that’s for sure.
I’m speechless
Very very cool.
Love the lyrics! And love the encounter!
UNBELIEVABLE! I love when God brings the unexpected to remind us, to center us and to give us a gift like Danny. I sat here with my wife and mom watching this video with wet eyes. Thankful for the Danny’s of the world today.
I’m praying that God would open my eyes to see and love the Danny’s of the world. I’m glad you ran in to this rad dude and holy crap…dude had some deep words in his rhymin’! Stoked to see how the footage makes it on the EPK!
Keep pursuing all that’s in front of you Los. It’s fun to be a part of your life and to watch God put His hand on your ministry. I’m thankful for ya bro!
I just dropped by my apartment after dealing with what I considered to be some really important stuff.. I fired up the laptop and took a peek at this site for some reason…I dont have words.. hallelujuah
This is truly amazing! God has such an amazing way of putting things in perspective for us. Thank you so much for sharing this priceless experience with us
GIVE THAT GUY A JOB!!!!! HE GOT SUCH A GREAAAAAAAAT BEAT!
The chills I got and smile on my face watching that– and I wasn’t even THERE!
Our God, is an awesome God!!!!!!!
Great stuff, really hope you find Danny for the remix.
“Hallelujah is the highest praise” is stuck in my head.
I was moved! That is awesome! I imagine that would put a whole new spin on how the song was supposed to sound.
No words…just tears…
Thank you Danny
I keep coming back to this, texted friends and told them to check it out, hearts will be changed by this..
I’ve watched this vid like 5 times. love it
Beautiful, just beautiful.
That is one of the most moving moments I’ve seen all year. Thank you.
Amazing. God took it to a completely unexpected and wonderful place.
There are no words. I’m speechless.
These are the real moments by which we measure the significance of our lives. I was utterly moved and wanted to thank you for sharing that experience, from one child of God to another…
What a selfish &*%$# I am. Thanks for holding the mirror up to my face.
Wow.
This video brought tears and smiles. What an amazing encounter. God is so cool! Thanks for sharing this with us.
i know it shouldn’t surprise me anymore when God sends little nuggets of amazing-ness like that, but it does. I absolutely love this video!
Dude I got a little something in my eye watching that. A beautiful experience. What was going through your mind and your body as that happened? What thoughts did you have? You must have felt the Spirit in that moment. I felt it just watching that. That experience says so many things about how creative the Creator is. Thanks for sharing that. James aka Jam.
Amen…..glad you posted this. Glad I could worship Him with you guys this Saturday afternoon. What a blessing. Amen.
You never know when or how…just that it will happen. Thanks for posting this Carlos. What a moment!
mark
carlos…that’s just the coolest collaboration i’ve ever seen…touching!
Be still in the presence of the Lord…BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
los
That’s awesome. Great job. very moving.
That was incredibly beautiful… I hope you find him again to record the song with you! Keep us updated!
That was awesome and so worshipful! I love how that came together!!
I pity the fool who doesn’t buy this album.
Love it… Please tell me you’ll be mixing in the reggae when you tour with this song!
love it los love it!
man… God may have just opened some huge doors for that man! i admire his willingness to even show up and worship with you while filming!
If you find him and get him to record with you that would be awesome! i am sending this video to everyone i just love it so much. God is good…
id also love to hear more of dannys story and how he came to Christ…
Godbless you man..
I gotta be honest – I am not impressed or moved by much. call me jaded, cynical, bored… whatever…
But this? This video moved me. Danny is a rock star, a true soldier of God. Church in America could stand to learn so so so much from him.
I want to meet him.
Don’t just say it. Central park. Atl. He’s waiting.
thanks – i was curious what park you were at.
Danny’s attitude is one you rarely find in America – it’s so freaking refreshing to hear that.
I believe with every ounce of energy that I have in me that God dwells in poverty. He lives in pain. He takes up permanent residency in desperation.
I’ve never been closer to God than when I was lowest in life (death of my son). I have since spent time trying to get back to that place without experiencing that same pain – but have slowly come to the realization that we are supposed to share in both Jesus resurrection AND his suffering. We Americanized Christians don’t like the thought of that…
But Danny – man Danny is right there with it.
I believe he knows God and knows Him well.
So thanks for the locale info – and I ain’t just saying it. I don’t have a ministry. I don’t sing or dance. I barely walk upright. But as a guy who came to christ late in life – I desire with a burning passion to have what Danny has.
Thanks for this man…
hey los – is that central park down there off of Linden Ave. – kind of behind Mt. Sinai Baptist Church? Or is there another one?
I am never surprise when our Father brings joy to my heart. I pray for the Dannys all around us. Mine is a 40 year old man (Robert), I often see on the sidewalk of our office. I always stop, because Jesus stopped for “blind Bartimaeus” and he also stopped for me. Love you, son…
No joke, I’m showing this to my church tomorrow night and gonna worship God with Danny’s words with my congregation…
Hallelujah and the Highest Praise!
What a blessing. Especially in a time when so much of life rivals for our praise and attention during this season.
Simply Amazing.
Absolutely astounding! Class!
Be class to see more and more ‘random’ moves of the Spirit like this. Thanks for sharing
Los… that’s awesome. Had a somewhat similar thing happen Friday night and blogged about it (and your experience this morning. Thought I’d share. http://bigearcreations.blogspot.com/2009/12/there-are-things-we-can-do.html
Blessing man
Dave
Los…been reading your blog for a while now and that was by far the best post ever! I am always amazed at the way God moves among us in the world and stirs our hearts…i pray that i never become content and comfortable in my walk with God.
God Bless
thanks God for bringing Danny into our life for a brief moment! Christmas was made for me in 5 minutes. That’s life changing stuff Carlos.
This is indeed a very inspiring story! Thanks for posting it!
This is insane. As I was watching, I kept asking myself, “Is this for real?” Praise the Lord… “Hallelujah in the highest praise.” (I think that’s what you both were singing, right?)
-Marshall Jones Jr.
wow, no words. when i saw this on twitter (the short clip)… cried… and now watching the long version…i cried again.
God is good. He’s everywhere.
One word comes to mind hearing what Danny has to say about his situation: Perspective. Thanks for sharing this Carlos. Cried through the entire thing. What a blessing.
I don’t think I could add anything to the comments already posted.
Yet another wrecking ball blow to my wall of complacency, that’s all.
Wow…what more can you say? The power of God…thanks for sharing that with us.
Sometimes I miss being homeless…
Read my post here:
http://churchmedic.com/ramblings/sometimes-i-miss-being-homeless
It is amazing how sometimes when we are no longer in the valley we forget that Hallelujah is the Highest Praise… and that we may have been placed in the Valley for a reason…
Wow… Maybe an angel, definately a true worshipper. That his worship causes others to worship…What a lesson he has taught. Truly hope you find him again, but if not, I thank God for being able to watch that one recorded moment in time. God bless your ministry.
Wow. Powerful. God was/is there in that. Danny’s song.
isn’t that just the most beautiful picture of God’s sufficiency and peace in Danny? WOW And what a reminder that God can use us wherever we are in this life. Bless you Los for your natural-ness and drawing this man in to worship the almighty God with you. You could have pushed him away out of your business. Your humility and authenticity is a beacon in this world of facades.
Los, man, that stuff is powerful! I get goosebumps every time I hear that. Thats an amazing song! can’t wait for the EP!
woooow. amazing.
beautiful song.
beautiful worship to a beautiful God.
Stumbled across this on Twitter. Amazing blessing. Danny has such a big spirit. The spontaneity he had in hearing God’s voice and responding with his whole heart, no inhibitions. And you recognizing what was going on and embracing it. Submitting your music to his interpretation and backing him up on “your” song. The grace, passion, and humility displayed by all parties in that clip is a model of what the Church is truly meant to be.
Hallelujah in the highest praise will be going through my head for days now. Just awesome.
It was amazing.
Blown away. Such anointing. Thanks for showing us…I think that’s one of the most beautiful things I have seen. I showed it to some of my family and it touched them as well. Love it.
You need to bring Danny on tour. If you do, let us know when you’re coming up to Richmond, VA!
I was really inspired by this, too.
But I also caught myself wondering, “Is that guy a Christian or a Rasta?”
Wiki Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rastafari_movement
Good point. But not THE point.
There are some Rastas that are true Christans. There are some Catholics that are true Christians. And there are some Baptists that are true Christans.
Obviously the moment did not lead to theological conversations. But the language he was using was biblical and the moment taught us to be strong in all moments and seasons of life.
So rasta or christan in that moment, God used it for His glory.
Amen
Wow did I need to see/hear this today. Thanks for sharing. God speaks to us in many ways.
So many.
Thank you Danny! this video did more to help me walk through this season of life right now more than anything else.
I’m speechless. Praise God!
simply amazing. i’d take that over a packed out church singing any day.
Jah: Yeah Right. Up In Smoke Baby!!
Brother how cool is this?!?! Worship is the single most unifying activity … just like Danny said, though we are so varying in our expression, there is “One God, One Father” and it is HE who gives us life. THANK YOU for being in the will of God and sharing that moment with us!
dang son. great post – i can’t believe i haven’t been following this blog/site already. this is legit, thanks for sharing! i am looking forward to hearing more about the album.
blessings.
Hebrews 13:2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it.
I just did a blog post about entertaining Angels because I think we see more homeless angels then anywhere. I’m not romanticizing, my daughter has worked with http://Noplaceoutreach.org for years and the homeless bless HER!
Maybe you entertained an Angel? SO glad you got to have this experience. I cried watching it. Thanks for this.
los…just strong stuff man. i know i’m echoing every other heart on this one…but that’s one of those moments, that yeah…we all hope you could hunt him down for a little remix…and if you can great…but that moment right there…we’re created for those moments…way not to miss it. Thanks for the reminder Los. And Danny…thank you for the reminder…Hallelujah is the highest praise.
Hey Los. Thanks for posting. I just showed the vid to my youth group. We talked about Christmas and Jesus showing up in the strangest places/persons…
Great inspiration!
Mik
Wow! That just made my year. Incredible. Who knows….maybe you were “entertaining an angel unaware.” At any rate, it was just beautiful.
What a remarkable video. Absolutely amazing, thanks for sharing
AMAZING!! Love the passion, emotion and the truth of what was shared in that moment!! I think sometimes people forget that the Danny’s of the world are incredible people that have something to offer us and not just us offering them something. thanks for posting this! INCREDIBLE
How often do I miss the God moments because of my own agenda…. How many Dannys to I pass by every day?
Sobering…
Blessings-
Beautiful! I watched with tears. Thank you for not asking Danny to step out of frame so you could finish your shoot. Thanks for taking the time to worship with him.
The Puritan’s prayer was a reminder of all the unnecessary stuff in my life that I thought would bring some sort of happiness, or even temporary peace.
Big blessings on you!
amazing…i love God & the people and stuff He uses for to give us reality checks
Carlos, Okay chills…just got chills. Just showed that clip to my boyfriend who is new to Christ and were both touched by that. Awesome.
great stuff Carlos — love how he worked in a little pato banton at the end… “Lord have mercy, mercy, mercy…”
On a day when I am stewing over, “Did I buy enough junk for Christmas?”…..Man! THANKS!!! I sure needed that.
Man. That just stopped me in my tracks. That was so amazing. When I’m in a valley I want to feel like a soldier in the army of God, not just when I’m rejoicing, but when I’m broken. So amazing thanks for sharing!
Thanks. I’ve listened to this several times today. What a blessing and a wonderful song. God is amazing and it’s so awesome sometimes in the places we find him.
Whoa. What an encounter with God. I have chills. “Save us from these comforts” indeed. May our only comfort this Christmas season be pushing ourselves into the uncomfortable and watching the God of the Universe show up and sweep us off our feet. Thanks for your heart, Danny. It has God written all over it.
amazing how when we think we are setting out for one purpose, God completely changes it up. Thinking of Danny and praying for him – thanking God for the unexpected blessing of “meeting” him.
This is awesome. I get chills every time I watch it.
This is awesome. Love how the Lord raises up worshipers wherever he wants. I guess it really is true – if we don’t praise him, the rocks will cry out.
I wanted to leave a response, but I don’t have any words…
Thank you for sharing this.
makes me wonder how many opportunities we miss daily for God to spontaneously bust into our world…
los, that was amazing dude.
This was beautiful. It brought tears to my eyes. God is so amazing and He is doing some amazing things through you
Found this site referenced on Ignite 107. I’m so glad he posted it, so I could see and experience this moment of God beauty. Thanks for being willing to sing the words He gives you, and especially for being open to other children of the King joining you. Wow.
Here’s where’ I saw it first.
http://www.ignite107.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1223&Itemid=19
The video was amazing!
Reggaemuffin Soul!!! Bonus Track (Live version)?
Man, I can’t stop watching this.
It’s hard to imagine that anyone would have enough grace to let a guy like that walk up and be a part of their video.
Nice work, bro. Very encouraging.
Now THAT is church. Wow!!
Thank you so much for loving Jesus and people. One of the greatest God moments I think I have ever seen. Chills. Absolutely amazing! I wanted to stand in the middle of Starbucks and simply shout, “You’ve got to see this!”
Love it!!!!!
Yeah. That’s good! I had a similar experience when I used to live in Washington DC. I was delivering a shipment of tees to a shop downtown and a homeless guy asked me for one… I couldn’t say “no.” I had a box of 100 tees right there. We continued to talk and he quoted more scripture than I’ve ever memorized (total) in my life. It was a freaky experience – and convicting. He knew way more about the Bible than I do and much like Danny, was very thankful for his current status and not down on life in the least bit. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome…i’m RT this and posting on FB. You need to have a version of this song on your album with Danny – that mix was sweet!!! He teaches us ALL something for sure.
So that’s what the face of God looks like…
(we are not orphans. we are sons.)
Wow! What an incredible reminder of what this season is all about. I reposted on my blog too.
Thank you for sharing.
Wow that was powerful! Brought me to tears. God bless you & God bless Danny. Can’t wait for the album to come out.
This is the first time I’ve ever read comments on a blog that messed me up and broke me as much as the post itself did. The Spirit of God is all over me right now Carlos. I’ll never be the same. Thanks you Lord for Carlos and Danny both.
Praise Jesus for His soldiers. We are each called at sometime in our life. I pray that I will be like Danny. Who truly is making it.
Blessings.
Dude that’s one of the illest things I’ve seen in a long time. Love the way our God works!
This brought tears to my eyes. Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!!!
love the way that HE works…how HE allows people to cross paths in life…teaching us….bringing us to our knees…one of your best posts ever Los!
oh that my heart would be broken, broken for you God.
Danny blesses my heart everytime I see this.
WOW! I have always had a heart for the homeless – but obviously assuming that they are all poor lost souls without the means or abilities to resurrect themselves from their plight. WRONG. They may not have the means – but now I realize there may be much overlooked ability. This was awesome – a wake-up – a realization. God’s voice is so LOUD!
Thank you Los for being there in that moment when God revealed one of the treasures from His treasure chest…
I will be playing this video for worship this Sunday on Epiphany Sunday. When Jesus comes down, walls fall down.
Wow.. I am in my office in tears. God is so good.
I work with the homeless every other Friday night in downtown San Antonio Texas, and I have met the most extraordinary people. Kique told me about God’s love with a bunch of “F” bombs – but I heard the voice of God as I listened to him… Kique (short for Enrique, from Puerto Rico) told me that he sees the rich, drinving their cars, thinking they have everything, but they have nothing.. he said “Me… I have nothing, but I have everything!”
Break me, Oh God, that I might be filled by You, and You alone.
Be weary.
The God Danny is talking about may indeed be another God… another religion.
Check out “Jah” in the Rastafarian religion and reevaluate your paradigm…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rastafari
Or he may be our God
Since the Holy Spirit presents Himself profoundly in the interaction between Danny and Carlos, and so many Christians disecerned it, I TRUST and have FAITH that it is our GOD of ALL Creations, Jahovah, Jesus who is referenced here.
That is amazing. I really saw a perfect example of Daniel reflecting God’s astounding love. This video was a good way to start the year for me. Thanks for letting me see communion with God.
Los,
This story has not left my lips. I’ve been telling people about this like crazy! Would you mind if I posted this on my blog for my readers to see? I’ll leave some link love of course (as I have a ton in the past anyways). Thoughts?
go ahead
Carlos, check this out!:
http://bobbylepinay.typepad.com/bobby_lepinay/2009/12/the-god-of-second-chances.html
I’ve been thinking about this for a while since you posted it. I wrote an article 2 years ago titled, ” Do you believe in the Prosperity Gospel?” that relates to your post. http://www.the-next-wave-ezine.info/issue108/index.cfm?id=31&ref=ARTICLES%5FADVENT%20REFLECTIONS%5F448
Love your posts on Danny. However, we must not romanticize homelessness. Most are mentally ill. Still EVERY life has dignity & value & God uses them.
This is beautiful. i like these most
Save us from these comforts.
Break us of our need for the familiar
Spare us any joy that’s not of You
Its really amazing
My family were touched by this video we will continue to pray that you will be able to find Danny, but even if you dont your life will never be the same
