Bo.
I saw you long before you saw Me.
The way a shepherd knows his own — I have always known you.
You carried the Bible into the business meeting.
From the one-man feed store in 1946 to the world's largest poultry company, the Book was never hidden. In Pittsburg, in political settings, you made the faith overt. I was there for every setting.
The sale was not an exit.
When the controlling interest went to JBS in 2009, the foundation remained active. You thought you were securing a legacy. You were also being made ready to steward the giving without the control.
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 Storehouse of My body on earth.
Without you, the Baptist institutions in East Texas lose a pillar. The foundation cannot reach the broken without your resources.
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 —
My sheep hear My voice
“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.
— for Bo Pilgrim (estate/family)
