SEVENTEEN LETTERS TO MY SON The free will God gave to us comes with a great responsibility that is overlooked by most people. Have you ever given thought as to why some people maximize their God-given talents, while others seem to stand on the sidelines complaining they need to be taught? If you are really successful with people in a manner God would have you be, then every other aspect of your religious, business and personal life over time will fall into place. At the end of the day the effect you have on the lives of those around you in your personal, family, religious and business aspects of your life will be the real measure of success.
