SPEAKER_02: Now, I do receive a lot of letters about my podcast, and we were reading one the other day, and it really touched my heart.
1:41
SPEAKER_02: We were reading it amongst all the other letters, you know, people saying, you know, I love your I love your podcast, I love your audio podcast, because we travel.
1:52
SPEAKER_02: See, a lot of people travel, a lot of people are on on their road when they're listening to my podcast, a lot of them are.
2:01
SPEAKER_02: So they can always watch a podcast or watch uh a video.
2:09
SPEAKER_02: But my podcast is more like a radio kind of a thing.
2:13
SPEAKER_02: You get what I'm saying?
2:15
SPEAKER_02: So when people are traveling and driving, they don't have to worry about looking at something, they can just listen to it.
2:25
SPEAKER_00: So we came across a letter the other day amongst maybe 214 letters.
2:35
SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I do get a lot of letters really.
2:38
SPEAKER_02: And we came across this one letter from this lady, I think it was her and her husband, I believe.
2:49
SPEAKER_02: And we read the letter, and almost want to bring tears to my eyes, but we read it and she was just thanking me for my audio series for my pop from my podcast.
3:04
SPEAKER_02: She said, for anything you do, she said we we we we listen and we wait for anything that you post or that you put out, even your reels of inspiration, um, video of inspiration or whatever I put out, they wait for it.
3:21
SPEAKER_02: She said, because it's so many bad things in the news.
3:26
SPEAKER_02: She said so many horrible, horrible things in the news.
3:32
SPEAKER_02: She said just about 99% of it is bad news.
3:39
SPEAKER_02: Even when you read about the news politics and just she said that's bad.
3:45
SPEAKER_02: She said everyday life things are going on with people, people are dying, and she said everything is just bad.
3:54
SPEAKER_00: She says to when I listen to your podcast, she said it's a podcast of hope.
4:05
SPEAKER_02: She said I love how you're doing a memorial for your sister.
4:11
SPEAKER_02: She said we wait to hear the updates on that.
4:15
SPEAKER_02: She said we love listening to how you let the Lord lead you.
4:25
SPEAKER_02: She said so many things in the letter.
4:27
SPEAKER_02: It was like a two, almost a three-page letter.
4:31
SPEAKER_02: And the strange thing about it, it was written in the old-fashioned way, like with the pen.
4:38
SPEAKER_02: She didn't type it, it was with the pen.
4:43
SPEAKER_02: And it was printed.
4:46
SPEAKER_02: That must have taken a long time to write.
4:51
SPEAKER_02: So she printed it, and a few words was kind of misspelled or what have you, but it was just it was encouragement to me that the Lord got people out there that listens to this podcast that crave what I am doing.
5:11
SPEAKER_02: And so I have to really be very, very careful everything that I post.
5:18
SPEAKER_02: On down from my pictures, I'm very careful what images I post of myself online.
5:26
SPEAKER_02: I do have a lot of pictures of myself, a lot.
5:29
SPEAKER_02: But I try to post the wholesome pictures, the modest ones.
5:35
SPEAKER_02: I got a lot of them.
5:36
SPEAKER_02: I got ones in swimsuits and all of that stuff.
5:40
SPEAKER_02: But these things like that, and I'm proud of my body, I really am.
5:45
SPEAKER_02: But things like that I keep to myself, and I post, I try to post the wholesome pictures.
5:51
SPEAKER_02: If I'm talking about dressing modest or whatever, whatever, I try to post pictures that are very modest, and I have a lot of those.
6:01
SPEAKER_02: And I say at least 75-80% of my pictures are pretty modest.
6:07
SPEAKER_02: But she went on to say that you know your your podcast brings hope.
6:12
SPEAKER_02: She said, I hope that you know there are people out here who really enjoy listening to your voice.
6:21
SPEAKER_02: She said your voice is like medication.
6:25
SPEAKER_02: It's certain trigger words that really just touched my heart.
6:33
SPEAKER_02: She said your voice is like medication, uh something else that touched me.
6:38
SPEAKER_02: She said, We love that you do audio instead of video.
6:42
SPEAKER_02: She said you're a pretty lady, you're very pretty, but you focus instead on how she put it, I need to get the letter.
6:53
SPEAKER_01: I should have it in front of me.
6:56
SPEAKER_01: Oh my god.
6:59
SPEAKER_02: But anyway, she said, being a pretty person, she said, but you focus instead on people listening to you what you're saying.
7:10
SPEAKER_02: She said because you could be all over the place, you can be a bigger internet sensation, she said, but instead you choose to continue to do it the radio way, the old fashioned way, the old time way, when they were just doing radio.
7:29
SPEAKER_02: She said, Oh my god, we appreciate you so, so, so, so much.
7:34
SPEAKER_02: And at the end of the letter, she she said, Is there anything we can do for you?
7:40
SPEAKER_02: She said, We want to start supporting you um monetarily.
7:45
SPEAKER_02: Now, I don't ask people for money.
7:48
SPEAKER_02: I really don't.
7:49
SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't tell people, hey, uh send me send me money over here.

8:11
SPEAKER_02: Uh and I I noticed it a long time ago, but I never paid any attention to it.

13:45
SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry guys are crying.
13:49
SPEAKER_01: I didn't mean for this to happen, but uh that letter touched me so much.
14:07
SPEAKER_02: Out of all the hundreds of letters that I received, that particular letter really just is one of the best letters that I have ever received that I've ever read.
14:24
SPEAKER_02: Get myself together here.
14:26
SPEAKER_02: Sorry, I'm so sorry.
14:29
SPEAKER_02: But she said some of the same things in her letter that Laura said when Laura was dying.
14:34

SPEAKER_02: She's lost so much of her sight.
15:00
SPEAKER_02: Not blind, blind, she's lost so much of her sight.
15:03
SPEAKER_02: I think she lost about maybe 60% of her sight, so she can still see, she got certain kind of glasses where she can still see a little bit.
15:11
SPEAKER_02: She even has a dog and everything that you know uh that walks around or whatever you call those dogs.
15:18

15:24
SPEAKER_02: She said, and she called me Gina.
15:26
SPEAKER_02: And when she said that, man, everybody who was around me, it was about three or four people who helped me do things, they were around and I just they could just hear me sobbing in the other room.
15:44
SPEAKER_02: They heard me sobbing and they they rushed in to see was I okay, you know, because I just burst out screaming, crying.
15:54
SPEAKER_02: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
16:00
SPEAKER_02: Do not ever tell me that God doesn't use a person who's gone on to be with him to come back and encourage you.
16:07
SPEAKER_02: Don't tell me that.
16:08
SPEAKER_02: People try to say okay, they're dead, they're never coming back.
16:11
SPEAKER_02: Okay, I know that they're gone.
16:13
SPEAKER_02: I know they're gone, okay?
16:15
SPEAKER_02: I know that.
16:17
SPEAKER_02: But I know God sent my sister back to encourage me.
16:21
SPEAKER_02: I know he do.
16:22
SPEAKER_02: He sends her back in dreams and visions.
16:25
SPEAKER_02: He sent her back to encourage me.
16:28
SPEAKER_02: But you got those people out there who said no, they're gone when she's crazy.
16:32
SPEAKER_02: She she's she's they say all kinds of things because I say that.
16:37
SPEAKER_02: They say that's it's a spirit of witchcraft and you know just all kinds of things people say because I tell them that my sister comes back to encourage me.
16:47
SPEAKER_02: And I believe that with all of my heart.
16:50
SPEAKER_02: Reading that letter proved to me that the Lord still used my sister to come back and encourage me.
17:00
SPEAKER_02: He really does.
17:01
SPEAKER_02: I believe that.
17:02
SPEAKER_02: No one ever made me stop believing that Laura, who I'm I was closest to.
17:07
SPEAKER_02: We were like twins.
17:08
SPEAKER_02: Nobody's gonna ever make me believe that she does not come back to encourage me.
17:14
SPEAKER_02: And of all the times reading letters, I'm reading it the month of her memorial.
17:20
SPEAKER_02: This month.
17:22
SPEAKER_02: I received that letter the other day.
17:25
SPEAKER_02: The other day.
17:28
SPEAKER_02: Tell me that's not God.
17:31
SPEAKER_02: Tell me that is not the work of God.
17:34
SPEAKER_02: Tell me, I dare anybody to tell me it's not the work of God.
17:39
SPEAKER_02: And this is Laura's memorial.
17:41
SPEAKER_02: She died on July 29th, 2020.
17:48
SPEAKER_02: And God sent back her spirit all the time to encourage me.
17:55
SPEAKER_02: Even when I'm feeling low, God has sent her back to encourage me.
17:59
SPEAKER_02: There are times I felt extremely low.
18:02
SPEAKER_02: And I know people were praying for me, but I I felt extremely low many, many, many, many times.
18:08
SPEAKER_02: And I will see her in dreams and visions, and we'd be loving and having fun together like we used to do.
18:15
SPEAKER_02: And then I'd wake up and I'd just be so mad.
18:20
SPEAKER_02: But that letter, I'm gonna call it the letter, and I'm gonna send this podcast to different people that I love and trust, and that got my back, you know what I mean?
18:34
SPEAKER_02: I'm not gonna send it to everybody because everybody don't follow me.
18:37
SPEAKER_02: My family don't follow me, they don't support what I'm doing.
18:42
SPEAKER_02: But I thank God that he put people in place out there who do.
18:47
SPEAKER_02: See, God put the people in place that he wants you.
18:51
SPEAKER_02: You're not gonna be with you're not gonna get the honor of the people around you.
18:55
SPEAKER_02: The Bible tells you that.
18:58
SPEAKER_02: You're without honor, except in your own country.
19:01
SPEAKER_02: You're without honor.
19:03
SPEAKER_02: And I'm not telling people to promote me and brag on me and put flowers on me.
19:08
SPEAKER_02: I'm not saying to do that.
19:10
SPEAKER_02: Guys, please forgive me.
19:11
SPEAKER_02: I'm still very emotional, I'm still actually crying here.
19:15
SPEAKER_02: And I'm trying to stop crying, so but that letter triggered emotions in my heart.
19:23
SPEAKER_02: It triggered my heart.
19:26
SPEAKER_02: It made me feel like Laura was a part of that letter somehow.
19:33
SPEAKER_02: The lady said she's she's I think she's like 80% or something blind.
19:38
SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna I'm gonna pull the letter up.
19:41
SPEAKER_02: She is she's 80% blind.
19:43
SPEAKER_02: She had her husband to write the letter.
19:46
SPEAKER_02: And the words that she said in that letter, oh my Lord, touched my heart.
19:53
SPEAKER_02: It made me want to go on and on and on and just lift up the Lord in spite of everything around me, in spite of people and the way that they feel about me.
20:06
SPEAKER_02: Because my sister Laura, who's gone on to be with the Lord, who's gone on to receive her reward from the Lord, she's gone.
20:17
SPEAKER_02: But her spirit still comes back to encourage her sister whom she was closest to.
20:24
SPEAKER_02: And that letter that the that that lady had her husband to write touched me, triggered me.
20:32
SPEAKER_02: God, I thank you, I thank you, I thank you, I thank you, Lord.
20:38
SPEAKER_02: I thank you, Lord Jesus, I thank you, Lord.
20:43
SPEAKER_02: I thank you so much for those people out there who support me.
20:48
SPEAKER_02: I'm not asking people to support me with money.
20:51
SPEAKER_02: They do.

21:18
SPEAKER_02: I don't say that.
21:19

SPEAKER_02: I'm not out here looking for a husband, I'm not out here looking for a boyfriend or a mate or a partner, I'm not out here looking for that.
25:34
SPEAKER_02: I'm not looking for that.
25:35
SPEAKER_02: I wanna make that very clear.
25:37
SPEAKER_02: I'm not looking for that.
25:39
SPEAKER_02: And so I try to present myself even wholesome in a way that people don't try to flirt.
25:46
SPEAKER_02: That's why I do audio.
25:48
SPEAKER_02: That's another reason I do audio.
25:50
SPEAKER_02: Because once upon a time I did a few videos, and I gotta say this, where I was, you know, showing my face, doing all of that, and I was dressed pretty decent.
26:01
SPEAKER_02: I wasn't showing any body parts.
26:04
SPEAKER_02: And boy, all of the letters I received, they were so lustful, and all the things they wanted to do, and oh my god, I wanna lick you, I want to do all these things, and it was just the wrong kind of message.
26:20
SPEAKER_02: Now, I'm not saying everybody get letters like that, maybe they don't get this type of letters, but when I did a a live video, did things live, and I'm not saying I'm all that, let me make that clear.
26:31
SPEAKER_02: But God led me to do audio, and I'm glad I do audio because of letters like this.
26:38
SPEAKER_02: The letter.
26:39
SPEAKER_02: That's the name of this podcast this time.
26:42
SPEAKER_02: This topic is called The Letter.
26:45
SPEAKER_02: To that beautiful, wonderful woman who's 80%, I think partially blind, had her husband write that letter.
26:52
SPEAKER_02: Thank you so much.
26:54
SPEAKER_02: I'm going to respond back to you.
26:57
SPEAKER_02: I'm going to respond back.
26:59
SPEAKER_02: She wasn't writing me asking for anything.
27:03
SPEAKER_02: She was writing me encouraging me.
27:06
SPEAKER_02: It was an encouraging letter.
27:07
SPEAKER_02: It was not a letter like some of these letters you receive.
27:11
SPEAKER_02: You can tell a scam letter.
27:12
SPEAKER_02: I can tell a scam letter.
27:15
SPEAKER_02: And a lot of those go right to spam.
27:18
SPEAKER_02: A lot of people are out here to scam you, believe you me.
27:20
SPEAKER_02: A lot of people write these letters and they try to act like they they're for you and you have to watch out for that too.
27:27
SPEAKER_02: Now it wasn't that type of letter.
27:30
SPEAKER_02: It wasn't that type of letter at all.
27:32
SPEAKER_02: Trust me, I know.
27:35
SPEAKER_02: So I just wanted to say that too, because there's a lot of people out here, they're scammers.
27:40
SPEAKER_02: And they try to write you all this stuff.
27:42
SPEAKER_02: Most of 'em, at least almost 99% of them go right to the the spam.
27:49
SPEAKER_02: But I think the word for that letter.
27:52
SPEAKER_02: It was legitimate.
27:54
SPEAKER_02: I know it was legitimate.
27:56
SPEAKER_02: Very legitimate.
27:57
SPEAKER_02: And I I'm not gonna tell you how I know it was legitimate, but I researched a few things about the letter.
28:04
SPEAKER_02: I researched the person.
28:06
SPEAKER_02: And this person works for a company, and yes, I it's a very legitimate letter.
28:11
SPEAKER_02: The person is very real.
28:14
SPEAKER_02: So I thank God for that letter.

29:48
SPEAKER_02: I wanted someone who's gonna speak and tell stories about the life that's real, not made-up stories.

SPEAKER_02: Go ahead and do what you want to do.
30:39
SPEAKER_02: Say what you want to say.
30:40

30:51
