His voice is great. He was homeless this morning and the local news guy stoped because of a sing the guy had about his voice. It was covered by a lot of news stations and even our local news station had it on there. And Thank God the man now has a job and has gotten so many offers from all kinds of places. One was even for a mortage on a home. Wow God blessed this man! I know how he felt being homeless and God blessing me with a job so I could get off the road too! I heard this and cried for this man and felt his pain. We all need to count our blessing daily! Thank God!

That's a great story! So he was rescued from homelessness because of the gift of having a great voice that God bestowed upon him, that's really quite something. Is he actually wealthy now?

Indeed. That's a great story, really inspiring. However, it's not only things like this that inspire me. It can be everyday things too. All of the small things that God gives to us daily, we often neglect to notice, but try to look out for them, and you just might find yourself pleasantly surprised at how amazing the way God works really is. :D

I take notice of what most people wouldn't even notice. God blesses me daily. People get too involved with the world things and forget to say thank you to The LORD. Or I love you FATHER! God isn't looking for someone to zap daily! The problems we get in our lives is because of something we humans do wrong and don't repent for it! The LORD is a loving LORD!

I read the story and listen to the video yesterday. What a beautiful story to start the new year off. Not to mention what a voice he has. God has certainly blessed him. Did you see the reunion with him and his mother? They hadn't seen each other in almost 20 years. He kept saying I love you mommy, did I cry at that! May God keep blessing him. God is so good!

Hi Lelin. I loved it I did see where he got to see his mother it made me cry too. I am a little upset at the news though they keep bringing up his past and asking him if he will slide back to his old habits. I wish they would be happy that they helped him and give him a chance to start his life over and that way he can prove them wrong. There are so many homeless people on the street and I am sure this has given them some hope. He keeps saying he has let God be his guide and keeps giving God the thanks for all his blessings. I hope and pray that the negative remarks about his past will stop and they will let him prove himself worthy and not cause his doubts to return. I pray that God will keep blessing him and making him stronger in HIS will. You have a good heart my friend!

I seen it on the news this morning. It was great. They interviewed him and he is even going to New York and gets to see his mother while he is there. I am glad the local news guy heard him and was able to help.

Hi Thoroughrob. I knew the today show was flying him in to be on that show. I hadn't heard about seeing his mother. Wow what a great God we have to let this man be freed from being homeless! It made me cry when I first seen it. I bet this man is thanking God for this gift! I am so thankful that the one lady that helped me get off the streets God blessed me that day! I know he must have been really sick of being homeless. It said he had been homeless for over ten years!
