Growing up in Durban on a surfboard, singer and songwriter, Ryan Slater learned to read the tides. He set his biorhythm to the rhythm of the sea and wind to ensure he does not miss the perfect day. Ryan finds it much the same in the Kingdom of God where the Holy Spirit is being compared to the wind, and Jesus said, “I only do what I see the Father doing”. When writing his new single, Perfect Day, he had a strong sense that God simply wanted to romance him. “He wanted me to run away with Him in the good old Song of Solomon fashion”. As he picked up his pen, the words ‘When God’s wind blows, it’s a perfect day’, just dropped into his mind. That set the theme for the entire song, which is an expansion on the romantic sailing away theme.
This worship leader at Journey of Grace Church currently lives in Durbanville at the start of the world’s longest Wine Route. Ryan now also has learned to discern good wine from bad. He found the Blood of Jesus the strongest, most satisfying and most intoxicated of all wines. “The fact that Jesus died my death and lived a perfect life, ticking all the boxes on my behalf, still gets me joyfully staggering around like a drunk!” Because of Jesus, Ryan will forever be living in gratitude and in alignment as to where the Wind is blowing and where the Wine is flowing.
