Manifestations Of The Miraculous
“I salute the man who is going through life always helpful, knowing no fear, and to whom aggressiveness and resentment are alien.” ~ Albert Einstein
The success I've enjoyed over the last 30+ years was based on a lifetime of overcoming adversity, failure was never an option. I looked to God for guidance and used what He gave me to become a gifted entrepreneur built on Kingdom Principles. There was nothing I could not do; I brought every Vision to reality.
But it wasn't always that way!! I believed God turned His back on me after years of abuse. Angry at everyone, most of all myself, I turned my back on God when I was 15 and dove "head-first" into drugs & alcohol. But on June 1, 1990, God saved me on treatment and I never drank again. In fact God was the One Person who never left!!
What I wanted most in this world was to be "Heard", but I had no voice. Today I have no doubt God called me to "stand up" and speak for those who have no voice of their own and make a difference in their lives. Having raised 3 daughters, I especially have a heart for women. I have a gift of depth and understanding, but I what I am able to apprehend, I will never comprehend!!
Now I see every mountain as an opportunity to help others, thinking less of myself and more of those who give my life "Purpose and Meaning". I have strong presence, a large platform, a huge audience, and little problem using them to say what needs to be said. There is no greater cause, no greater purpose, and no greater story than one of "Faith, Hope, and Love"!
The legacy I hope to leave behind is not one of success, fortune, or fame; I want to be known as man who helped rather than hurt. That someday people would say of me; "Tim gave more than he received, gave voice to the voiceless, stood up for the helpless, and put his hand to the flame pulling out those in need".
If that is not my legacy, I was an "Empty Suit”; "All Talk & No Action"!!
“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.” ~ Einstein
