It is really so cool to see other people's processes. I've written a lot of songs but I haven't shared them with many people. This is encouraging!

"let your words of truth rise above all the noise" that's for me, straight from the lord... bless you Sir for being the vessel that God used to get the message to me.

i wrote a song and presented it to Don about 13 years ago at a bible school in Dallas, TX. And he told me that it would never work, i need to focus on becoming a skilled musician, and forget about songwriting. Well fast forward 13 years, I've became a skilled musician. But the song i wrote and presented to him 13 years ago, has went on to win several awards, and ministers to people everytime i play and sing it. And i didn't change anything about the song. And I've written hundreds more that all either had a hook in the chorus, or a great melody line. That have went on to win awards to.

I wrote my first song almost 10 years ago, after watching a Bio on an amazing singer. I didn't understand what God was doing in my life, when He said the song it not for you but the singer, I tried for almost 6 months trying to hand over to the singer, but no one would listen to me. once I gave up. The when on to bless me with more meaningful songs blessings others. thanks for the encouragements.
