This is such a fun audition. 19-year-old Austin Montgomery sounds just like Elvis during his blind audition.

As Austin begins singing, he receives an immediate chair turn. One just asks if he sounds like Elvis a little, and the other just shakes his head yes. He has such a naturally cool voice. The crowd is going wild as the judges contemplate whether they should turn or not. 

The two judges decide that he sounds like Elvis and it’s really cool, so both of them turn their chairs at the same time. As he points, the judges argue over who he keeps pointing at during his performance. Austin is so calm and confident as he sings to the crowd. One judge stands and dances to the song. It is definitely a crowd-pleaser. 

Austin shares that he is only 19-year-old and the judges are in shock. He is from California. He shares his style and those who have influenced him that are oldies but goodies. 

All of the judges rave about him and have fun with him. A judge compliments him that he sounds like Elvis. Austin replies, “Thank you” at one point, and a judge responds, “Thank you very much, you should have said.” 

One judge tells him it is an honor to have him on the show and they can do it right. The next says that he would be a great sound on the radio today, and she is looking for diverse musical talent for her team. The next coach says that she would love to work with him and his style. He finally selects his coach, and the audience cheers.

This is a moment of showing us the timeless talent that the Lord provides. He is so creative and continues to give us unique voices in every generation. It causes me to think about His faithful promises for every generation.

“And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you.” Genesis 17:7

“That’s Logan That’s your brother!” the mother tells her little girl. “Hi, baby brother!” says the toddler. Then her mom asks if she loves him, and she enthusiastically responds with “Yes! Baby Logan!”

“Oh my gosh, the way that she lovingly stared into his eyes after she put the pacifier into his mouth. That made my heart melt,” comments another person online.

The little girl’s mother shared about what the tender moment meant for her. “Getting to watch her little face see him for the first time, I don’t think my heart could take any more. It quite literally felt like it was going to explode.”

She continued: “The gasps at the beginning. Like she just cannot believe her eyes. Like she is just in such shock that she is getting to see this baby that we’ve been talking about for months and months and months. It was just a really magical moment. We weren’t really sure how it was going to go because she’s only ever been an only child. She just seems to love every second of it, honestly. So, we’ve been just really blessed with getting to watch this wonderful side of her, being a big sister and watching her fall into that role quite naturally. It’s like she’s beyond her years, you know, she just adores him.”

Does God really have a plan for me? #toughquestionsforgod

Check out this sweet act of kindness when Ed Sheeran gave away his guitar to a 10-year-old in the crowd during an impromptu concert.

“I have a question. Is that your guitar? How long you been playing guitar for?” Ed Sheeran asked the young boy.

The boy, named Arthur Baggett, replied that he had been playing for 6 months.

“How old are you?” Ed Sheeran asked Arthur. “10? So, I started playing guitar at 11 and I couldn’t play guitar before that. If I give you this, you promise – make him practice every day, alright?” Ed said to the boy’s mom.

After he finished playing his last song, Ed signed the guitar with the message “Arthur, keep playing.” Then he handed it over to the young fan. He also gave him the amp and speaker.

What a sweet gesture! And one that Arthur will never forget.

The impromptu hour-long performance that Ed Sheeran gave was in Ipswich, England on the steps of Town Hall. Word got around the town that Ed was playing there, and the crowd soon formed to about 1,000 people.

Arthur was actually on his way to his guitar lesson when he begged his mom if he could skip it in order to go see Ed Sheeran play – someone that he is a huge fan of. And because of that decision, the young guitar player was blessed with an amazing gift from his idol!

“It’s such a nice guitar and the amp is so precious to me because Ed is someone that I want to be like,” said Arthur. “I love singing and playing guitar. I’m going to improve so much from this point on – and it’s going to be incredible to look back on this moment.”

We hope that you enjoyed this heartwarming video today, and way to go Ed Sheeran for blessing that young boy with a wonderful gift!

There are benefits in trusting God. This week, remember that your safety and peace is in the Lord.

Check out this story of bus drivers coming to the rescue after a toddler was left on the side of the road after a carjacking.

Recently in Michigan, a toddler boy was in the back seat of his parents’ car when it was stolen by carjackers. And soon after the scary event, Sue Figueroa, a bus driver, spotted the toddler wandering alone next to the road and came to his rescue.

“I just drove past a baby by the side of the road with a blanket, and I just immediately said, ‘I need to turn around and get back there right away,’” said Sue.

While Sue was helping the lost little boy onto her bus and thinking of what her next step would be to help locate his parents, another bus driver was helping out in his own way.

The parents of the toddler had actually frantically waved down Dave Skinner, another bus driver, after the carjacking took place.

“I had a couple of parents raising their arms, trying to stop traffic,” Dave said.

Dave instantly knew something was wrong, and when he pulled over to talk to them, the mom and dad told him about the carjacking and their lost little boy.

As Dave was calling in for help, the toddler was already safe with Sue on her bus. Soon, dispatchers were able to bring the bus drivers, the parents, and the toddler together.

What a great rescue story! And Dave shared about how vigilant bus drivers are while they are working.

“Drivers are very attentive of all the kids in the neighborhood when we’re picking them up, and if they see something odd or strange, they’re real quick to get on the radio and holler back,” shared Dave.

We hope that you enjoyed this story about these two heroic bus drivers today!

There’s nothing we won’t do for our mothers, and the same goes for a son who swims half a mile in flood waters to rescue his wheelchair-bound mother. 86-year-old Karen Lauder has seen more than her fair share of floods, storms, and hurricanes. 

When it was suggested that she evacuate, she preferred to hunker down in her own home, surrounded by what was familiar to her. But she had no idea how badly Hurricane Ian would devastate Florida. 

She ended up calling her son for help as flood waters began rushing into her house, rising quickly. Johnny knew he couldn’t wait for rescuers to get to her, and he swam half a mile to get his mom to safety. By the time her son, Johnny, arrived, his mother was up to her shoulders in black, murky, debris-filled water. 

He wrapped his mother up and set her on a table in order to help her fight hyperthermia and exhaustion. Johnny knew they couldn’t wait out the hurricane at his mother’s house, and he knew she needed medical treatment right away. 

The pair then began the long treacherous hike filled with moments of swimming to get his mother to the nearest hospital. The word rescue causes many different dramatic pictures to flood our minds. It stirs our emotions. We ask why God would rescue us, especially if we were the cause of our need to be rescued. But that is the beautiful thing about the Lord. Before we even know we need to be rescued, he is already on his way. 

This incredible rescue is a reminder of how God is the God of rescues. He saves our souls and restores our lives to complete salvation when we entrust ourselves into his hands. 

If you are going through a storm right now, know that you are not alone. God is with you in the raging wind. He is with you as the waters rise, and he is with you in the darkest of nights. 

“Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear.” Isaiah 65:24

You have got to check out these best Golden Buzzer moments from judge Simon Cowell! They are all so impressive!

The first part of the video shows Sara James on America’s Got Talent. This 13-year-old wowed the judges with her cover of Billie Eilish's "Lovely." Sara is also from Poland, and this was her first time in America.

"It must be such an unbelievable feeling doing this in front of an American audience because I’m guessing this is where you dreamt of performing," Simon Cowell said to Sara. "I can remember when I came to America for the first time 20 odd years ago, and that was a moment I’ll never forget. And I want to make this a moment for you to remember forever.” With that, he slammed down his Golden Buzzer. What an incredible moment!

The next act in the video is from Verge Aero and shows their audition on America’s Got Talent: Extreme! This show features a diverse mix of the most extraordinary and mind-blowing acts that don’t fit the confines of the theatrical stage normally used for AGT acts.

For their audition, Verge Aero demonstrated an extreme talent by having 160 synchronized drones fly mesmerizing patterns across the sky while putting on a dazzling light show for the judges. Their act even ended with a giant AGT logo in the sky. Simon called it spectacular and gave them a Golden Buzzer.

The final performer in this video was Axel Blake, and he was auditioning on Britain’s Got Talent. He had the whole audience, as well as the judges, in hysterics with his comedy routine. And Simon loved it so much, he gave him a Golden Buzzer.

While the first part of this video showed the first audition for these three acts, the second part of the video showed their final performances at the live show. Every performance was incredible, and it is easy to see why Simon gave a Golden Buzzer to these talented acts!

It is not pleasant when the Lord corrects us. But afterward, it yields the peacable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

Enjoy the beautiful sounds of a legendary tune as this husband and wife duo perform ‘At Last.’

This classic song was originally written in 1941 for a musical, but it wasn’t until 1960 that it became the iconic tune it is today. Etta James recorded her own arrangement and the song went straight to number one.

Even decades later, ‘At Last’ continues to be regularly played and covered by other artists all over the world. And whenever you hear those famous lyrics, it truly transports you back to another time and place.

“At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over and life is like a song, oh yeah
At last the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at you”

Marnie and Patrick Laird are a talented husband and wife team with life-long musical roots. Both Marnie and Patrick are classically trained musicians who met while attending a Chamber Music Festival.

Over the years, they delighted the Internet with their classical crossovers such as ‘The Sound Of Silence’ and ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.’ Known by their stage name, Brooklyn Duo, these two have garnered millions of views across social media and the number keeps climbing.

Today, the lovely duo is taking on another classic as they perform the beloved tune ‘At Last.’

“You smile, oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last”

As you listen to this amazing rendition of ‘At Last,’ you’ll be in complete  awe. From the flawless notes to the soothing melody, this is truly a performance that you don’t want to miss.

This is a simple statement of fact. But it is true only in the new man.

We are never truly alone. This video is a beautiful reminder of this timeless truth after a woman makes a heartbreaking plea on Tiktok after only one person RVSP’ed to her little sister’s party. 

Charlotte was getting ready to turn eight when her sister Chloe began planning a birthday party for her. Both Charlotte and Chloe were looking forward to having a moment of joy in their lives after dealing with the heartbreak of losing their mother to a brain tumor less than three months before. 

Chloe thought a birthday celebration would be just the ticket to bring in joy and create some new memories. But as the day got closer, Chloe began to worry if any of Charlotte’s classmates were coming because she had only received one response. 

Heartbroken and grieving, Charlotte reminded people on Titktok that if you’re invited to a party–just go! Just show up. You can have no idea what someone is truly dealing with. 

All it takes is a little kindness. Charlotte didn’t think anything would really come of her Tiktok video until she logged back on later. She was stunned by so many kind strangers asking how they could help make Charlotte’s birthday a little brighter. Strangers were sending gifts and wanted to know when Chloe’s party would be so they could attend too! 

What was a dismal and devastating situation became a ripple effect of kindness! One stranger after another became friends with both Chloe and Charlotte as they brought friends and helped decorate for the party! It was such a beautiful moment to share in the joy of celebrating this sweet little girl’s birthday. 

I can’t help but become teary-eyed. May we all find a way to brighten another person’s day as God has called us to show love and kindness to one another. 

Ephesians 4:32 “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”

From the moment he arrived on the stage, he became the iconic King of Rock. We know him for his famous dance moves, incredible songs, and his tumultuous personal life. But here are some incredible Elvis Presley stories you may have never heard before. 

For example, did you know that Elvis met former President Richard Nixon? That iconic moment was staged to help improve Nixon’s character with the nation. But here’s where it gets really interesting, Elvis flew to Washington on a whim and wrote a six-page letter that he wanted to deliver to the President personally! 

It was a letter with advice on how to fight the war on drugs. 

Later, when Elvis realized the sway he had over his fans, he helped encourage fans all over the United States to get vaccinated for Polio. The vaccination rate skyrocketed from less than one percent to nearly 80 percent thanks to his help. He offered to get vaccinated backstage at the “Ed Sullivan Show.” 

Ginger Alden opened up about her relationship with Elvis and shared that he had a fun, adventurous side. He enjoyed riding on three-wheelers and motorcycles! She also wanted to make it clear to everyone that she and Elvis were happy, unlike a lot of the rumors that said otherwise. 

Ginger took her time to write a memoir of her time with the King of Rock and released it to the public so fans could find out what Elvis was really like behind closed doors, including how he loved to play the organ in his room. 

While there are rumors out there stating that Elvis is still alive and in hiding, we can still listen to his music and honor the man who changed the history of music decades after his passing. He left a mark on this world that will never be forgotten!
