God does amazing things when we worship. Here are some stories…

I am so glad I heard you sing today. I have struggled so much since I lost my brother 3 years ago, I felt distant from God. I felt lost.
I haven’t been to church either since and today when I heard you sing, I honestly felt God’s presence, thank you so much.
For the first time in 3 years I played gospel music again. It has been hard but after this afternoon I feel like I am getting back to him.

I remember hearing you play at Waterloo Station on 1 May 2019 as I went home from work. A few months earlier I’d learned that my grandfather, who has helped raise me and who was a role model for my work, had died.
I am a barrister and for that week, I was representing grandparents who wanted to raise their grandchild. As I left court and learned of my grandfather’s death, I was devastated and felt so alone. I then heard and watched in tears as you sang ‘Build My Life’ and ‘Good Good Father’.
I needed to hear those words, to be reminded that my grandfather was not my only father and role model. This probably won’t and shouldn’t mean much coming from someone who really struggles with their faith and who only a handful of people know has any faith, but I do believe that there is a God who he uses people to bless us and on 1 May 2019, he used you. Thank you.

So today, I travelled from Birmingham to Euston Station and walked out on the forecourt to hear “What a Beautiful Name” and I honestly thought it was in my head.
It’s been a tough few weeks with family illness and big changes ahead of me but I just wanted to thank you for reminding me that God has a plan, he is leading the way and I can trust in him to guide me. Keep at it, your worship is reaching ears from across the country and bringing comfort, especially to those of us in difficult seasons.

Dear Zac, that day you were singing at Waterloo Station marked exactly 1 month that I have been suffering from debilitating headaches.
While I managed to push through, that day it all got a little too much for me, I went to the GP after work and picked up a prescription for medication. Every pharmacy I went into didn’t have the pills, they all said the only one that had them was the Boots inside Waterloo Station. So, as I was walking there in a panic, your singing intercepted my prayer and my journey to Boots. I was stopped in my tracks and felt the grace and peace of God over me again. I felt his comfort as you sang ‘still, call the sea to still.” I could feel the outpouring of his love. My headache became bearable again and I didn’t end up going to Boots.
Praise God and I thank him for your boldness and using you to be the calm in the midst of my storm that day. Praise Jesus always.
