Apply Radical Truths: A STORY OF SECOND CHANCE FROM GOD - TED WILLIAMS, THE MAN WITH A GOLDEN VOICE

I cannot help but write about the story of this certain man with a golden voice whose video went viral through the internet. His video was viewed 11 million plus times in Youtube since it was uploaded. Below is the video when he was discovered.

This is the story of Ted Williams, the man with a golden voice of America. Ted Williams was homeless, and was using his golden voice to collect money on passersby on the side of the road. Ted admitted his life was ruined by drugs and alcohol. He admitted that he has his "hard times" and was in jail for two years, but now he is clean. He was discovered by a Columbus dispatch reporter along the road of Ohio. Since his video went viral, it became an internet sensation, and this paved a way for him to have a comeback in life he was wishing for. Today, several employments have been offered to him, but according to the report, it was the Cleveland Cavaliers who employed him in a full-time job, and will give him a house. What a very touching and inspirational story of comeback. Watching his interview in the news where he is already a different man, dodging a new clean hair-cut, I was so inspired with the words he has said over millions live televiewers. It was a testimony of how God can radically change a life, a testimony of how God can give a person a second chance, and a testimony of how good God is to prove a person a comeback.

Ted Williams said in the interview:

“The difference between now and the time I did have some kind of a heyday or a successful life is that know I’m more appreciative of life, I’m not taking it for granted and I’m thanking the Lord every day. Even if this didn’t happen, I’m still on that road and thanked Him and I my hour with God.”

When he said those words, "An hour with God" it really touched me. He is pertaining to his hour on the road collecting money from the passersby. He was appreciative of every hour God has given him.

Indeed, everybody deserves a second chance. No matter how hard you fall, what matters is your rebound. And God will always help the person who chose to comeback no matter how impossible the situation is, who chose to be appreciative of life no matter how hard it is, and who chose to believe that there is God who always give a second chance.
