But isn't that the same with me and maybe you? We may think God is in charge, but something happens in a moment and we take over.
It's not even a conscious thought sometimes, but if I examine it, in a certain situation that's what happened. It's a moment by moment thing to live - "I am second."
Which got me thinking about I am second - "I am Second is a movement meant to inspire people of all kinds to live for God and for others. Actors. Athletes. Musicians. Business leaders. Drug addicts. Your next-door neighbor. People like you."
One of those testimonies was about Jason Castro. (Make sure you 'watch the film' which tells his story)
He was the fourth placed finalist on American idol in 2008 and I was a fan.
I love when he says his life goal is -
"Loving father, faithful husband and servant of all...that's what Jesus came to be - that's what we're called to be."
I love hearing modern testimonies like his, he isn't a great speaker but it doesn't matter. It still comes across what and who is most important in his life. Which is the most important part of a testimony!
If you are not a speaker or feel you can't share your testimony, take hope - it doesn't matter as your love for Jesus will come through. It's all about Jesus!
As well as the above link to 'I am second', here is another article in christianpost. I will finish with a quote I love from Jason - "I'm a Christian in whatever I do."
"Who I am" album.
I really enjoy - 'wait for a miracle' and 'what if I fall'.
(although itunes class this a christian album, all the songs aren't what some would think 100% 'christian', although has that theme.)
