On that Day we Meet Jesus
The other night, I had an odd dream. In it, I accidentally stepped into an area of water next to my house. Like quicksand, the water and mud pulled me under. I was dying. I know, it sounds morbid, but stick with me. . . When I was dying, I called out to God, “God, I only hope I was good enough for you.” When I awoke, I was not only startled by the dream but also shocked at the words I spoke.

David Leonard ‘The Wait’ Review
David LeonardThe Wait (Integrity Music) David Leonard, half of the Grammy-nominated band All Sons and Daughters, has struck out on his own and released a soul-filled pop record that should be regarded as one of the year’s best. On The Wait, Leonard crafts songs that don’t shy away from the troubled side of a believer. These songs speak of heartache and loneliness, but they also point to the solution—Jesus. On “Wanderer,” Leonard sings “Though I wander far from You/ You find me and bring me home,” and that’s a constant theme throughout the album—a very present, very real God that is here when we are at our lowest.
