2nd Generation

Wait

Wow! What a week we've had. We left last Wednesday and headed for Branson, Missouri to participate in the Southern Gospel Nights Picnic Festival at Silver Dollar City. And what a time we had! We sang at Silver Dollar City on Thursday, Friday and Saturday for a total of ten performances. The crowds that gathered to hear us sing were awesome. There a few times I thought we were about ready to have good ole' campmeetin' days. The spirit and the anointing was great. We met a lot of wonderful people and booked services, but more than anything it blessed us so much to hear how the people were blessed. It seemed like after every performance someone would share with us how our words and music had encouraged them to fight on through the cancer, depressions and overall struggles of life they were facing. Even though it was an amusement park the gospel of Jesus Christ was being sung all over those hills. I truly believe there were hundreds of people left that park knowing that God would see them through. And what an awesome country we live in to be able to share Jesus with so many people.

We are gearing up for NQC next week and are so excited to be able to be there again this year. Please come by and visit with us at booths 934 and 936. We have a free gift, while supplies last. We will be singing at two showcases this year. 2nd Generation is so excited and honored to be a part of such a wonderful event. God has been moving so mightly in our services and we just fill like the doors are about ready to blow open for us. I have a poem that I read almost every day titled "Wait" by Russell Kelfer. It's too long to place on here as an article, but you can find it on the internet. But what it is talking about is waiting on God. We get is such a hurry and want everything right now and we forget that it's in God's timing, not ours. If we rush God we will never know about trusting in Him, the joy of resting in Him, the glow of His comfort, that His grace is sufficient, the depth of His love or the power He gives to the faint. He can answer us quickly, but we would miss what He's trying to do through us, not for us. We are so excited about what God has ahead for 2nd G and sometimes we get a litle anxious and impatient. That's when God reminds us that his most precious answer of all is, "Wait."

God is so good!

See ya at NQC!

Until next time, keep on singing...and waiting on God.
