Good Morning FB Friends:
I have been awake since 4:00am this morning listening to what I believe is the voice of my saviour Jesus Christ. I talk to God as much as I can, and I always ask for wisdom. Now before I get started, I just want to say that I’m not one of those super saved, holier than thou folks. I’m just a man who has struggled with my calling on this earth.
Many of you know me as a real estate investor. But what you don’t know is that although I’ve had some success (keyword good), I still know that I have not fully utilized my God given talent to touch people around the globe.
The reason that I know that I’m not walking in my calling is because I “wrestle” with the word of God! I hear his voice telling me to do something completely different than what I’m doing. I have ran from the whispers in my mind for years. I now truly believe that this is the reason why I’m not having GREAT success in my life.
The funny thing about this journey that I’m walking is that I used to think that it was all about money. I thought that the more money I made, the happier I would be. Well I’ve been blessed to make a lot of money. But it seems like the money always brings more problems, and people that are looking to take that money away.
Although I love people, I now feel that I have to build a protective wall to keep people away. The only problem with me doing that is that we are here to be blessings to others. I believe that in order to do what God has called on me to do, I have to first be like Christ, and heal the immediate problem that so many of us have.
When I think about it, the problem that is affecting most people is finances. Before I go any further, let me just explain to you that about 2 1/2 years ago, a pastor from Africa prophesied that I would become a great “hub” and help people from all walks of life become financially empowered. God used this man to get my attention, but I ignored the message.
I was told that I had a finance ministry that would attract people globally. God also clearly stated that my ministry was for the church but it would not be conducted inside of the church. He went on to say that the clergy would come to me for assistance and advice.
Well, I’m here writing this letter today to state that I’m going to submit to the will of God, and use my talents for whatever he has for me. I’m always going to be a real estate investor. But now I’m going to be known for one thing. That’s helping other people walk in their destiny.
One thing that I know is that we all have a piece of a dream. Everyone doesn’t want to do real estate, but I believe that we all have something that we are passionate about. Something that you can do better than anyone else on this planet. My job will now be helping others who don’t have the wherewithal to make their dreams become reality.
We need more people who are willing to shift the focus from them to the focus of helping others get the same success that the so called gurus have acquired.
Please join my revamped group that will be called “Turning Dreamers into Achievers”
I look forward to working with other experts in various fields and helping create true wealth, health and prosperity on earth
I would like to thank God for using Andrew Morrison to show me what I’m truly supposed to be doing with my gifts. I met him in Bridgeport, CT at a Black Chamber of Commerce meeting. Andrew, I didn’t just hear what you where saying, I felt it with my heart.
I now know to only be known for one thing, even though I do several things on the side. So, I will continue to invest in real estate and teach those who want it, but my new focus is finding out what your passions are, and helping you go from dreamers to achievers!
As always,
Keep God 1st, and Invest in People
