Geoff Moore is Awesome

The Grammy nominated singer (as he was introduced at my church) was at our church this past weekend.  Wow he is really awesome.  He talked about how he and Steven Curtis Chapman are very good friends and how tough it was for the Chapman family to go through what they had to go through.  He said that he and Steven Curtis Chapman write songs together and that all the good ones that Steven Curtis Chapman sings were mostly written by him.  Ha ha he is a funny dude.  His best story though was this one: His wife came up to him one day and asked him to pray for something.  She asked him to pray about adopting a child from around the world.  He agreed, but what he said was she was not specific enough.  He was praying about it, but he was praying that God would bring her back to her senses.  Well apparently his prayer worked because he does not have one daughter from around the world. HE has TWO!!!  What he said though that I loved was "God is so amazing because he gives us everything we ever wanted even before we realize we actually want it."  Both his daughters are from China and were either abandoned in front of a doorstep or under a bridge.  Then he told a story about his 5 year old Chinese daughter.  She asked him "Daddy did Jesus know my name before you and mommy came to get me".  he gave her a resounding YES and then he told us "And because of that her and I like to sing this song together.  THen he sang "He Knows My Name."  Awesome guy.
