Healing in God's Time

📖 The Scoop

When award-winning gospel music songwriter Dave Clark awoke one morning with what he thought was a sore throat, little did he or his family suspect that it was the beginning of a 19-year battle with a painful disease known as apthous stomatitis a condition that 29 doctors at the famed Mayo Clinic said was incurable. But they didn t know Dave s God. Nor did they know Dave s dream and his calling to be a gospel songwriter. Leaving his Michigan home at the age of 17, he made his way alone to Nashville, Tennessee, where he found a job assembling bicycles, while pitching his songs to publishers. Becoming acquainted with Brian Speer of the well-known Speer Family led to a rewarding and enjoyable five years with the singing group. But that didn t satisfy the longing of Dave s heart to be a songwriter. So, even though his disease was at its most painful, he resigned and set out on his own. In the years that followed, Dave earned a reputation as a special songwriter with his songs hitting #1 on the Christian music charts 25 times His debilitating disease continued, however and his family worried for his very life. Yet God was actually at work through a multitude of circumstances and healing finally came in a miraculous way.
