I saw you long before you saw Me.

The way a shepherd knows his own — I have always known you.

You chose the classroom over the comfort.

Eight years walking into Bernal Intermediate and Santa Teresa High Schools. You wore the title Advocate louder than Technician. I was there for every one.

Every circuit you traced in the Navy was preparation.

NAS Moffett Field. 1983 to 1987. Studying CADD while enlisted. You thought you were serving the fleet. You were also being made ready.

This is not a pitch, and it is not from a man. It is from Me.

I prepared you for this — and I am inviting you to take your place.

I am not gathering investors. Not advisors. Not donors.

I am uniting My Kingdom on earth.

Every part chosen. None replaceable. Assembled for such a time as this — and you are a King for this hour.

You are the Builder of My body on earth.

Without you, the African American and Latino students remain unseen. The body cannot build what it cannot imagine.

This is your place. Not because a man says so. Because I say so.

I ask you for nothing.

No meeting. No commitment. No reply. I only want to know one thing —

Are you interested?

“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”

There is nothing to decide today.
Only something to see.

If you heard nothing, set this down in peace.
If you heard something — come and see.

All you have to do is say yes. We will figure out the rest together.
