The gift of music instead of the gift of birth

Silivea Johnson wanted so desperately to give birth to a child. God told her that he had something different for her:

On her knees in a back room of her house, Silivea Johnson cried and pleaded with the Lord.

She asked why it was it taking her and her husband, Chris Johnson, so long to have a child.

'I did wonder what if I died and there was no trace of my life,' she said.

When God spoke back to her, Johnson wrote down His words.

'God said my legacy lives on in you and that’s how people will remember you.'

Johnson eventually found her calling -- contemporary gospel singer -- after working in radio and newspaper advertising and as a beautician. She since has released two albums -- "I Give Him Praise" and "Legacy of Christ".
