"My testimony is that God has always walked with me, even when I wasn't walking with Him," says Christian artist James Milanesa.  Although raised in a Christian home, James abandoned his faith when he moved to New York after high school to work as a model and actor.  While there, he spent his free time partying with the entertainment industry crowd, and his Christian upbringing seemed far away.

But God doesn't let go of His children easily.  "My mother prayed for 10 years for me to come back to the Lord," remembers James.  "One night when I was about 25, I had a car accident when I fell asleep behind the wheel.  I survived without a scratch, but it got my attention.  I realized how shallow my life had become, and I recommitted my life to Jesus soon afterwards."

Moving back home to California, James began working with several local youth groups, and friends who heard his beautiful tenor voice suggested that he think about a career in music ministry.  But James, though he had always been musically gifted, suffered from a childhood fear of singing in front of crowds.

In November, 1994, a friend was scheduled to sing at the LA Convention Center for a Christian conference.  Unbeknownst to him, she put James on the bill as the opening act.  Trapped, he prepared a program and sang for the large audience despite his fears.

"I turned as white as a sheet before I went on stage," says James.  "I prayed that if the Lord had called me to this, He would help me, and suddenly I felt the fear being washed away in a wave of peace.  I felt the presence of the Holy Spirit when I sang, and I received a standing ovation at the end, which was really a nice confirmation."

During the next year, God provided many opportunities for singing and ministry, taking him all over California and to India, where he was asked to sing privately for Mother Teresa on her feast day.  "While she held my hand, I sang for Mother Teresa in front of over 1,500 nuns," remembers James.  "Then, she anointed my feet with oil, kissed me on the forehead, and said that God was calling me forth to minister to the poor in spirit of the world.  It was amazing."

In the last few years, James has been invited back to India several times and has also traveled to Rome, Croatia (at the height of the Bosnian conflict), Portugal, Spain, France, Indonesia, Singapore, Jerusalem, Jordan, and many parts of the United States. 

Anyone who listens will be glad that God has given James back his gift of music.
