When I did nightclub entertaining I also performed at some hospitals

               and nursing homes. At a children’s hospital, I sang for some children.
               Afterward, a little girl (about 5-6 years old) came up to me and

               said, “Do you know what? I get to go meet Jesus real soon.”


               At the time I had no spirit about me that I was tuned in to, and that was
               active in any way. So I was actually confused about what she meant.

               I really didn’t know she meant she was dying.


               Her mother was there and told me about her impending death. Now
               I know what she meant. But I’ve also come to realize that what she
               inferred was that her life-journey would be very short.





               The First Book I Ever Wrote


               Earlier in life, I knew ‘Mr. Positive: Dr. Norman Vincent Peale.’ He wrote

               an endorsement for a book I’d written: ‘Searching for Reality.’ The
               cover said, “How to get the most out of the best you have to offer.”
























               This is still a good statement, at least partially, about our journey in

               LIFE. This is true although I’ve also come to see that ‘self-help’ has
               another side to the coin that says ‘God-help.’  If we don’t balance our

               soul with God’s Spirit, our soul can get out of control and run all over
               the place.
