👑❤️ THE MAN I AM TODAY — CREATED, MOLDED, AND TRANSFORMED BY GOD 🙏🏽✝️
As I reflect on my life, I can honestly say that I am a man who knows who he is, whose he is, and where God has brought him from. I am a confident, classy, elegant, well-organized, and independent man who appreciates the finer things in life.

On November 23, as I celebrate my 66th birthday, I will look back over my life with a grateful heart. I will remember where I came from, what God brought me through, and how far He has carried me by faith. I am not ashamed of my testimony because it reminds me that God can bri
