“Life would change because he would be a new person, and he was allowing Jesus to transform him into the masterpiece God created him to be. He wanted his life of false assumptions to be replaced by a life based on God’s truth.”
AWAKE to a New Life… > page 89
As of this date, 1.7 million people have died from the COVID-19 virus pandemic – and yet the title of this is Glorious Day. It is not glorious because people die, but rather is glorious when people become free from death and awake to a new life. To most of the nearly 8 billion people in this world today, that makes no sense. But to the relatively few number of people who know the one true God, it is a Glorious Day. It becomes a glorious day going forward from the point we truly believe and receive Jesus as both Savior and Lord of our life. AWAKE to a New Life… is an easy-reading fictional story of how an average guy discovered new life. Glorious Day is an upbeat song with the same message:
I was buried beneath my shame / Who could carry that kind of weight / It was my tomb / ‘Till I met You / I was breathing but not alive / All my failures I tried to hide / It was my tomb / ‘Till I met You / You called my name / And I ran out of that grave / Out of the darkness / Into Your glorious day!

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9 ESV)
Great start, Al. The song enhances your message. Keep telling the good news of Jesus Christ!
