J.Z. DuBose Bio:
Alright everyone. It is absolutely AMAZING how God works. I was looking at a very old Bible of mine. I saw that when I was twelve years ols, on April 12th, 1998, that I felt like God had told me that one day I was going to play the keyboards like Bro. Kenny. (Bro. Kenny was my youth pastor at the time.) Then when I was about a junior in high school, I got a random desire to play the piano. I never took any lessons, I never could read sheet music tremendously well, but I learned by ear, and taught myself how to play. In the process of me learning how to play, I never ONCE remembered what I wrote in my Bible when I was only 12 years old. Then, on February 3rd, 2005 I was sitting at my fiance's house, playing the piano, just praising God, when I began to pray. I then heard God speak to me, although it wasn't audible, I just knew. I felt that God was telling me that my purpose for being here was to sing and write songs for him. So, I wrote that down as well. Now at random times throughout the day these lyrics pop into my head. They're so awesome that I could NEVER have come up with them on my own. So I said all of that to say that I am pursuing a musical career with everything in me. While God may have put me here to sing and write songs, I have to get up the hill with some of my own effort. So pray for me if/when you think about it. My desire in being a musician is not to make money or to promote myself or my talents. My talent is not my own, my talent was given to me by God to use for him. I only desire to be a mouthpiece for God. I want him to look into ALL of the Earth and say, 'Justin, you listen to me better than anyone, and you are more faithful than anyone. Here's a song, use it to touch the world for Me." So when you hear my songs one day, they are not my own, but they are God's words that he so wonderfully chose to speak through me.
