Set Backs!

Last Friday, I went to a "returning to your roots" concert in San Antonio. Some of the Christian artists that were popular in the "70s" and "80s" were reunited to do a concert. It was great to see Barry Mcguire, Dallas Holm, Chuck Girard, Janny Grein and others perform their classic songs from the past. Leon Petillo participated, sang and did a comedy ruitine. Towards the end he said, there is something that all of us want you to know. "A set back, is a set up, for a come back". Those words exploded in my spirit. Then on Sunday, I was at the "Macedonia Baptist Church" in San Antonio to share a little about our mission work and the guest speaker as he was promoting one of his CD's said, this one is called, "A set back, is a set up, for a comeback"! It just about blew me away. Two times in three days in completely different arenas God spoke to me. It made sence as I thought about the set backs in my life and since then everywhere I go I find somebody who is going through some kind of set back. What about you? Remember, our setbacks of life are just preparing us for a comeback of somekind in the future.

    Pat,
    How scarey is it that when I read the list of performers from the concert to my employees only one of them could recognize any of the names? I would have loved to have been there.

    Praise God that He is the facilitator of the Comeback! He is awesome and I am excited to see what we get to do next.

    This is my first visit to your blog. I was gathering pictures and information for an introductory bio for our church to advertise your meeting in November. I have really enjoyed it. Anna Jewel is beautiful! I look forward to seeing you when you are here. Love and Blessings, Susan Veach
