Lost my wife to cancer six years ago this morning. Fernando was her favorite. Listening reminds me of her marvelous presence. A Jewish girl growing up in a Muslim culture of North Africa with a French education and a dream of marrying an American soldier (turned out to be me!). Came to faith in Messiah in great tumult, she loved everyone.

I was introduced to Fernando Ortega before I surrendered to Jesus Christ by a dear friend who’s mother I cared for the last 18 months of her life. I was having a particularly bad morning at work and I had lost sleep. My friend played Sleepless Night for me, picked my feet up in her recliner and made me breakfast. She cared for me when I was supposed to be caring for her mom. She showed me kindness when I needed it the most. Her moms number one comfort and joy in life was listening to Fernando every single day until she passed onto heaven. It was such a joy and comfort. I continue to listen everyday to his meaningful music and beautiful voice. Also, I’m from New Mexico too!!! God bless Fernando.

Praise God! It is the annointing that ministers to us. Not all claiming to be Christian musicians have that annointing. It is received only through consecration, prayer, fully committing oneself to the Lord and allowing Him to minister through you. All true believers in Christ have giftings and talents to be used for His glory. Not all are called to ministrr in music. But whatever we do for the Lord, He will bless, if we are truly comitted to Him.

I had the privilege of seeing an intimate performance like this one. He did a fundraiser event at Christ's Kitchen here in Spokane, WA.

My kids have grown up listening to so many of these songs. It was a truly magical night, and I remember being on cloud 9 in the days following that concert.

Absolutely Beautiful 🙌🏼♥️🙌🏼 Thanking God for you! Love your music... 🎤🎶🎹🎶👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 About 9 year's ago, our Father, said to me "pack your bags", and shortly thereafter, He shut everything down in my life, and sent me to my brothers. Unbeknownst to us, a huge storm was about to blow in... just 2 weeks after I got there, he lost his job of 20 years, just 2 months prior to his retirement, and then news came that his wife's mother was going to pass away... I looked up, and went okay now I get it 🙌🏼 I, being a Jesus Freak 🥰 was the ⚓in their storm... One day my brother came out of the hall holding his phone, completely sobbing... he came and sat next to me and turned it up, and it was Fernando singing "in the morning when I rise, give me Jesus"... he said that, out of nowhere it just popped up on his phone! 🙌🏼♥️🙌🏼 We all survived the Storm, their marriage and home in tact, and both my sister in law and brother, when most would begin, drowning their sorrows, they both quite drinking! 🙌🏼♥️🙌🏼 How Great and FAITHFUL is our God! 🙌🏼♥️🙌🏼 ✝️🛐 Thank you Fernando for giving your life as a gift to us, In Jesus Name, may the LORD Bless and Keep you ♥️

Regardless of the source of the storm….we embrace them knowing they create a deepened faith….a deeper walk….learning to trust Him more. “Storms” are purposed. May we ALL embrace such storms as we evolve to be more like Jesus. May we all taste and see His goodness….become more like Him! 🙌💯🕊
