Voices

I met a homeless man whose name I don't recall, but he had what sounds like A million dollar voice. I met Cal who said he was an electrician which is not a career requiring great voice quality; But he had a million dollar voice. Tim used to own a swimming pool business. He was homeless when I met him. But he had a million dollar voice. I thought such a voice would bring greater success. So, I have often longed for a voice more like theirs; One with a little more base and a little less tenor; One that quickly commands attention when spoken. God chose not to give me such an authoritative voice. But I have not declined to use the voice God gave to me.
