The Devil Can Never Have All The Good Music

On Sunday, February 24, at 2:45 a.m., our brother, Larry Norman went to be with his Lord. Larry is the kind of Christian most people should be, and has the kind of testimony we should all strive for. I use the word "is" when I talk of him, because he is not gone, only moved on home. He's alive and well and singing his songs in the presence of Jesus Himself. Perhaps he is harmonizing with Keith Green and celebrating with the thousands who have come to know and love Jesus and serve Him better because of Larry's ministry here on earth. While it's sad that we won't be treated to any new music here, we have the beautiful legacy of songs he gave us already. He showed us that Christianity is not something you wear on your body, but it flows from the Spirit of God through hearts and souls and voices. He taught us that God will speak as He will, not as we decide. He gave us the good music that will continue to inspire and encourage. After all, "Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music?"

I'll see you later, Larry.
