Happy Fourth of July!
/Throwing it back for the Fourth! My family and friends have seen me sing this numerous times at this point, but my very first pro sports gig with the Houston Rockets remains one of my favorites. It reminds me of the kinds of things that happen when you “Don’t despise the days of small beginnings.” {Zech 4:10} This moment didn’t start when they handed me the mic...
This moment started on my morning commutes to work as a teacher, which was when I practiced and daydreamed of one day singing the National Anthem publicly and professionally.
“Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin... ”
It’s been a privilege to share the journey with so many of you who’ve watched this evolve from singing at “small,” local festivals and events into multiple opportunities with the Houston Astros and ATP World Tour.
But, let this be an encouragement to all of you today who are building and preparing behind the scenes. Let this speak to those of you whose work seems to be bearing little fruit, but you still feel called. Stay faithful!
You have NO IDEA how you preparation is setting you up for what’s to come!
Stay inspired. Love you.
