One of Dillon's favorite scriptures is Joshua 1:9: "Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."
Dillon put that promise to the test, and he learned it was true. "I tried my best. I put my best effort and heart into the songs so the listeners will be able to feel the Spirit."
As Dillon grows out of his fear and into his talents, he recognizes he has received a lot of help—not only from his family but from his Heavenly Father.
"I know," he says, "that God answered my prayers."
