Victoria White (in the white dress) gave Hurricane Harvey evacuees a needed and incredibly helpful dose of gospel this week in Houston. |
Today, I'm back with, well, a Harvey update.
In a video that's gone totally viral, a group of gospel singers led by a woman named Victoria White lifted spirits in a Houston-area evacuation center.
I'm definitely not a religious man, but you've got to find comfort where you can. Kudos to Victoria White for providing this totally needed dose of medicine to a roomful of people who had just reached the lowest point in their lives.
The video of what happened is below. (Kleenex alert with this one.) Notice how the people in the shelter join in on the song. They all needed that.
After the video went viral, White had the following to say. Again, I'm not religious but this woman speaks the truth!
"I had no ide this was being recorded, but God had a plan!... Not only did He want to love on those gathered in Lone Star Expo Center who suffered loss at the hands of Hurricane Harvey, but He wanted to love on people across the world who were dealing with tbier own personal storms! That's the kind of loving God we serve - the kind who is equally concerned for the masses and the individual."
I'm not trying to get political here, but if I did believe in a God, White's version is the one that seems closest to reality. And not the God some so-called religious leaders espouse.
Thank you, Victoria White and the rest of these gospel singers. You brought a glimmer of joy to the people in Houston who needed it most. And we all need a glimmer of joy now and then even if our lives are going pretty well.
Well done, Victoria!
