Ted Williams: The Man with the Golden Voice

So, what do you do when you are down in your luck? Ted Williams realized he was blessed with something special, and with his belief in God, he was definitely destined to go somewhere. Although Ted fought his battles with drugs and alcohol, he found his way through the darkness and found the light. With a great amount of bravery, he pan-handled by busy roads to show off his gift from God. Ted definitely does have a "golden voice."


The Internet also helped a great deal in spreading the word about Ted. With a simple video posting on YouTube, it went viral and now it has over 3 million views. We all can learn a very simple lesson about Ted...


Even though we are down on our luck, or if things are really looking gruesome, there is a way to pull ourselves back up. Sometimes it takes the most biggest disasters for us to really see that life is a special gift. Ted Williams also teaches us-that just because you may be out of work -or perhaps even maybe moving from shelter to shelter-you won't be there forever. God indeed will look after you--you will get back up again. All it takes is some prayer, a little bit of hope, courage and the motivation to know that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
