The stage is lit up with bright colors. The audience is packed with eager fans from many years of loyalty. They are ready to see Andy Williams and Glen Campbell sing together to finish out the show with McCarther Park. A great song. The song begins flawlessly as Glen begins to serenade the audience. Soon it is Andy's turn to sing a verse. But as he begins, a loud thud comes from the on stage orchestra. The band slowly stops playing to peer over their tier's to see what happened. The music stops. The orchestra conducter has just had a major heart attack. There is silence throughout the theater. The curtain goes down. The conducter lies at the feet of the piano DEAD. "Is there a doctor in the house?!" someone cries. Two doctors and a nurse from the audience run up to the stage. The conducter has no pulse. He is not breathing. They miraculously manage to get him breathing again as the paramedics arrive to take him to the E.R.
The conducter was a chain smoker and a heavy drinker. His heart just stopped. Glen said, "His legs went stiff as a board and then he just fell over. " He hit his head on something. There was blood all over the stage.
Something like that can really put things into perspective.
Be thankful for all God's blessings, especially LIFE, the greatest blessing that God gave us other than free will and Christ. Dont take your life for granted. Any one of us could drop dead at any time.

Everyone take a moment to look up at the sky or anywhere around you just to see how amazing God is. Everything that God created is so wonderful. Sometimes you just have a moment like when the sky is so perfect and unique that you look up and just have to say, "Thank you God."
Count your blessings. And when you run out of existing numbers, you'll know just how awesome God is.

Oh, everyone, I discovered that I cannot come to PHX this coming week because some inescapable things have come up that I cant miss. But I will be making my way out there before June 27. So watch out! Bam!

Love and miss you all!
