Evan Leslie gives thanks
LAST month gospel singer Evan Leslie released his debut single Joy . The song is his way of thanking God for the blessings that He has bestowed upon him.
“The song is about giving thanks to God for all that He has down in my life. I have a passion for Christ and a determination to do His work,” said Leslie.
A carpenter by profession, Leslie is the owner of Love Foundation Music Ministry. He relocated to New York two years ago.
“The journey has been good so far. God has placed the right people in my music journey to help me along the way,” said the former Red Hills resident.
Leslie hopes to inspire and to spread the word of the Lord.
“I want to minister through music to touch and change lives; letting them know that, with Jesus Christ, whatever you are going through in life, remember that Jesus is a miracle working God. He did it for me. He can also do it for you too. Trust in Jesus 100 per cent,” he said. “I was going through a difficult time in my life and I could not understand why being a child of God I was struggling so much to make a living. One Sunday I remembered I went to church and I prayed and prayed and asked God to help me to put this struggle to an end. One week later I received a blessing and I came to America, and the favour of God has continued in my life. So, I wrote this song giving God thanks for what he has done for me.”
