One night in Vietnam
under a Saturday sky, lit up with incoming rockets near my compound, I
felt my life could end at any minute. I looked up at the lonely foreign
sky feeling thousands of miles from my loved ones and cried out to God
that I would seek and serve Him if He got me through Vietnam.
God kept His side of the bargain but I didn't. I came home safe and sound
and pursued my dreams. I received a bronze star on my departure from the
army. I graduated with a college degree. And I was honored by meeting
Elvis Presley and working as one of his security guards, all of which I
never dreamed possible.
However, nothing seemed fulfilling to me, especially when I came close to
Sunny West, Elvis' personal bodyguard. He told me about all the Cadillac's
and gifts from Elvis, yet no one in his organization seemed happy. As a
matter of fact, even Elvis, who had achieved fame and fortune seemed
miserable!
I would lay at night and ask God, "What's life all about? Are you even
there?" The following songs are testimonies of my struggles to find
happiness and fulfillment and purpose in my life. This only happened when
I realized God was there all the time, waiting for me to come to the
"reality" of His love and saving grace, which come to us through His death
on the cross.
The "reality" is that Jesus Christ is real and I could never earn God's
love by anything I tried to do. I simply had to accept His gift. My prayer
is that I can give back something to Him through these songs, small as
that is, for all He has given me and that others may find Him to be
"reality" too because God's gift is for all who will receive it.
