Jesus has a way of reaching all people. I'm not what you would consider a buttoned down type of guy. I now sport a bikeresque beard and kind of look like a gorilla. I'm not quite a biker, but I've always found myself knowingly fitting that stigma. I will keep the rest of this simple.

When I was in the midst of surrender, I was overwhelmed with the Love of God unto all Humanity. One day, I was at a large family gathering. I had no idea that the Charlie Daniels band was going to be there. I was walking around and saw a specific MASSIVE gathering of Bikers formed into a theatre style seating pattern. These folks were drunk, high, tatted from head to toe, dressed in various leathers, while the gals were in a majority state of fair undress and wild as wild can be. The gals weren't dressed like Eve, but they didn't leave much to the imagination, either. I wondered what they were all gathered for and looked over to see the Charlie Daniel's Band performing Live! I just stopped, jaw dropped, because grade A performers rarely appear in front of us without intention. Yet, here I was, beholding a rather wonderful vision.

At that moment, Charlie Daniels said; I'm not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and started up his rendition of Amazing Grace. I was dumbstruck! I just stood there mesmerized and overwhelmed by Jesus.

As I felt tears streaming down my face, I started to realize that every one of those folks were still as statues and every one of them were also sporting tears streaming down their faces. Some of the audience were quietly weeping in Gratitude and Joy. God spoke into my heart something I have never forgotten, that very day.

Revelation 19:16 On his robe and on His thigh he has this name written: <- Allow your personal conviction here. To me, it makes me smile and cry tears of joy.

King of kings and Lord of lords.
