|
I am a singer/songwriter called according to His
Purpose, Kingdom, and Glory; recording as Dewitt
Gentry.
I gave my heart to Jesus kneeling in a cold, gray
prison cell, surrounded by concrete & steel. It was
my third time in prison and I had tried everything the
world had to offer in order to attempt to fill that
void in my life. That night, Jesus touched me!!
At this time in my life, I had been writing,
singing, and playing country and southern rock music
for about 10 years. I had never really been involved
with church and I had no knowledge of Christian music.
So as God fine tuned my abilities and the Word became
more prominent in my life I began to write my own
songs unto the Lord.
I could provide details of my past that would
probably amaze most, for my life was typical of one
who might land in prison three times. But with Jesus,
it's not about where you have been, it"s about where
you are going!!
Only Jesus can take a shattered past and give it a
future! Only Jesus can take a broken, beaten heart
and give it hope! Only Jesus can take an utterly
hopeless situation and provide a victory! Sound too
good to be true? Ask my son who gets to spend time
with his now sober father. God has completely
delivered me
from drug addiction and alcoholism!
He can do for you what He has done for me!
You, too can be FREE!
I walked out of prison three years ago for the third
and final time. Though my journey since then has been
tough, Jesus has walked with me every step of the way.
I have been unable to make a descent living due
to my past, but every time there has been a need, God
has provided. Sure I could put together some
slapstick band and make good money playing in bars and
clubs, but I have chosen to use my God given talents
for HIS PURPOSE, KINGDOM AND GLORY! He is using what
He has given me to change lives!
When God give a song titled "Don't Make Me Leave You
Behind" I never dreamed that I would receive the
tremendous response that I have experienced. I can
honestly say that people have given their hearts to
Jesus because of this song. The odd thing is, not only
does it tug at the hearts of the lost, but it also
ministers to and comforts the body of Christ as well.
It has been well received by both!!!! (Only God can do
that!) I give all honor, glory and praise to my Father
in heaven.
I have this song and others freely
available for play & or download.
