Every new day we are given should be used as an opportunity to glorify the Creator, as we have no idea how long we'll be here to make a difference.
I'm glad to use my wild array of talents to share with the global community, as well as a way of serving the Creator who gave me these talents. He deserves the
It was not until I was ten that my parents starting noticing I had any interest in music whatsoever, and it was not until 2007 that I actually picked up the hobby of musical composition and production. I have had more than enough dimensions of inspiration - my life journey, my friends, my family, and my Savior - and I know for a fact that I will never produce even a tenth of all the joyful songs I have written. I am more than glad to use the extraordinary talents that God has given me for His glory and to inspire others. I have been blessed far beyond measures of human comprehension, and the least I can do in return is give my life to the One who started it all. I am an American, to be sure . . . however, that does not mean I was born or raised in America. As a missionary kid, I have been to corners of the globe that only National Geographic has taken most of my friends. I have experienced God at work in so many different and powerful ways, and I can express only a fraction of my emotions through some of the songs that you may be listening to right now. I am no more perfect than any other human being: I have seen indescribable joy, and I have seen heart-shredding despair. But through it all, God is still mine and I am still His, and I am going to forever praise His name . . . would you care to join me?

Story behind the song
"May This Life" is a song written in commemoration of a dear friend of mine who battled bravely against cancer, but in the end was called home to the Father. Nonetheless, his legacy continues to inspire people to live everyday for the glory of the Father, because we have no idea from one day to the next whether we’ll be here or not.
Lyrics
Introduction Hallelujah; let your will be done Hallelujah; your faithfulness outlives the sun Verse 1 Every day I see the sun is a new opportunity begun To let your glory shine through all of me I have no fear of what’s to come; the victory’s already won And you plans far greater than what your children can see . . . so Chorus May this life I live be lived for you For however long I’m here, in whatever I’m put through I breathe to bring glory to you As day by day I am made new Verse 2 Whether I stay or am called to go, you alone can fully know How it fits into the scheme of life And you are perfect, you are true; so show me what I’m called to do As I rest within your joy, knowing you’re stronger than my strife Bridge To magnify your majesty is the purpose of my legacy And when you call me home to the foot of your throne I’ll magnify your majesty again for all eternity . . . so End Hallelujah; let your will be done Hallelujah; your faithfulness outlives the sun I breathe to bring glory to you And your faithfulness still remains true
