Well today I got proof that God exists.     Some of you will remember that 2 years ago I was asked to sing a solo for Good Friday(I had been in the church choir).   I sang "Old Rugged Cross'.    People seem to like it even though I had made many mistakes.   This year, I was asked again to sing "Old Rugged Cross"  again for Good Friday.   I said I'd do it.  I'd been practicing it  and been doing ok with it.   I had been praying for help for the solo every since I found out I was going to be doing it.   But last night(the night before I was scheduled to sing) I was practicing and couldn't seem to get it right.   I kept messing up the words.  I prayed again last night.  I though for sure I was going to screw up get something wrong while performing it.     I practiced with the piano player earlier today and I felt like I was not singing so well.    I prayed again.   When it came time to sing it for real,  I nailed.   I sang all the words correctly.   My voice felt good and it sounded right throughout.    At the end people clapped and many were amazed and told me so.    I honest feel that God helped me through that.  But how else do you explain how some no talent loser like me without any sort of formal training(except what I got as a kid in the church and school choir, which wasn't all that much except being told to sing from the diaphragm)  was able to sing so well today?   I am not saying sounded anywhere near like a professional, but no way could I have sounded as well as I had without some sort of miracle taking place.    Laugh if you want.
