letter, which follows, speaks loud and clear that God has blessed me with this special assignment.
“August 22, 2009
Mr. Harold Keller,
Hello. How are you doing? I hope and pray well in spirit, mind and health.
As for me, I’m very grateful to be attending your
Get High on Life classes (correction “ our classes). It is a blessing that I was able to get to know you. Even though I was only here for a short time, but, we’ve accomplished a
lot.
Trust me when I tell you that you’ll always be in my mind and heart and not only mine, but many people. I pray that God blesses you with many more years here with us because life ain’t but a brief moment for us to spread the Word of God.
Out of all the cities and states that I crossed doing what I was doing, God chose for me to stop here. Of course, not my will, but it was His will. I was just being reckless out there. I would drive at speeds of
120-130 mph, drinking alcohol,
snorting cocoa leaf, smoking weed, trafficking drugs and, most of all, I wasn’t spending time with my family.
Look at me now. God took me to unknown land (to me) and sat me down and opened my eyes. Now I
go up for parole in September and I wanted to know if you can write the Parole Board a recommendation letter for me, please.
May God bless you and your family today, tomorrow and forever. Amen.
Sincerely,
Name Withheld
P.S. Thank you for everything.”
NOTE: I did write a letter to the Parole Board, but he was refused parole. He now has approximately 10 months before his release.
