Some people inspire me by just being who they are. Such is the case with my friend Arthur. Arthur had lived in the streets for 28 years; he ate out of dumpsters and slept where he could. After he came to Christ, Arthur’s life changed. I met Arthur about 6 years ago at the Salvation Army while I was there serving and he was staying in one of their housing units. A team from Freshwater was there serving food in the cafeteria while different people took turns singing and leading worship. When Arthur started singing, I stopped what I was doing and just listened; with his right hand raised to heaven and his left hand clasping the mic, Arthur sang with passion and joy. He gave all glory and honor to God and I was inspired. When he was finished, I approached him and he shared his story with me and ever since that night he and I have been friends. I am drawn to his infectious smile and transparent heart; he is the kind of person that makes you smile just because of who he is.
