\u201cPraise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.\u201d Psalm 33:2-3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I could hear the beautiful sounds of Sergio\u2019s flamingo guitar, as I entered the restaurant. He began playing guitar at age six and has played ever since. When I walked by him, we each smiled and nodded hello. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moments later, he asked, \u201cJack. Any song requests?\u201d I said, \u201cI love everything you play.\u201d Then his fingers began to move across the strings effortlessly and with incredible skill. It was as if God was using Sergio to touch the depths of my soul with his music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On leaving the restaurant, we exchanged gifts and hugs. I gave him a Christian book and he gave me an autographed copy of his newest CD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
