My Father's Story

MY FATHER’S STORY

Copyright Mark Miller

As a son, my relationship with my Dad has been amazing. I was asked recently to share my father’s incredible story. I would say that my father’s story is somewhere between the movies “Slumdog Millionaire” and “The Lion.” I named the book I am presently writing about my dear father’s life -

Who am I

Here is a Chapter 3 Excerpt I am happy to share with you as a preview in our Informed People magazine.

One morning, I happened to be running towards a block of buildings that belonged to the Royal Air Force. As I got closer to one of the building`s I could see a serviceman sitting outside holding a football (soccer ball). He wore an RAF uniform and appeared slim, even frail as he sat there turn ing the ball around in his hands. As I approached, he looked up at me with a smile on his face and asked “Play ball?” I nodded and he placed the ball on the ground and kicked it towards me. I had never kicked a football in my life. I was barefoot and had not owned a pair of shoes since living with the Sisters at the orphanage.

After we played for a little while, the serviceman offered me some chocolate and sweets. I grabbed them hungrily and ate them on the spot. He must have enjoyed my company as we carried on passing the football back and forth for a few hours. I remember laughing as I chased after the ball. This was the longest positive human interaction I’d had in six years.

Finally, as the sun started to head west, the serviceman picked up looked at him sadly as I understood enough English to know what he had meant. I knew I could not do as he asked so I shook my head and said “No home, no family”. He asked me where I was from and I told him Jamshedpur for that was where Mrs. Miller lived and that was the last city name I could remember. The look of shock ran across the man’s face when I told him where I had traveled from. His eyes widened as he said, “Good God that’s thousands of miles away!” A series of emotions played across the man`s face and then finally he asked “What is your name lad?” I told him, Joseph. He replied, “My name is Nelson Taylor”. Then he squared his jaw and said “Right Joseph, you had better come with me”. He reached out his hand. I looked at his outstretched fingers and then raised my eyes to his face. He didn’t look angry or like he wanted to do me harm. He grabbed my hand and led me back to the Air Force barracks. Nelson was my savior and I know I would not be alive today if it was not for this man.” - Mark Miller

You are valuable and you have purpose.

Copyright Reverend Louise M Smith

You were born to solve a problem.

Never allow anyone else to determine your value. You must know

your worth to demand your worth and receive it.

To know your worth is to know your gift. Your gift determines your

worth. If you don’t know your gift, you will never know your true

worth. Your gift makes you wealthy without sorrow. When you know

your gift, you will know your source and from which it came. “This is

the heritage of the Lord.”

Know the difference between source and resource, your source is

from above and your resource is from the earth. We are all born

with a gift; some may have more than one, but we all have a gift

that is unique to us and to us only.

All have gifts and many persons may never seek to know their gift

nor are they aware that they even have one. Most people will spend

their whole life never knowing their worth (value,) they will only op

erate from their skills and not their gifts. As long as you are working

from your skills others will determine what your worth is. Your skills

are what you have been trained to do, for instance, your education

level, your choice of study, or on the job training technical skills.

Yes, in some cases your skill can also be your gift however your

skill is your job, where your gift is your work.

For your gift, you go to bed thinking about it, wake up thinking

about it, and excited to do it. Your gift is your worth. It will bring you

peace, fulfillment, and wealth while at the same time helping others.

Your gift will always be involved in helping others.

When you operate from your skills there is a limit on your value and

others can tell you what you are worth because they can always

train others to do your skill. No one else will ever be able to train for

yourgiftas it is GOD given and only for you. Others can try to imi

tate it, but they cannot have it, it will only be a counterfeit. You have

the original. Your gift is priceless no one can be trained for it.

Now is the time to get to know your purpose, know your strength.

Don’t chase success or money. Know your gift and money will

chase you; be unique this is what makes you valuable. Always do Live by wise principals. Be honest and have integrity. Create a

plan. You will be led to the right people who can help you get

there.

Choose your friends wisely, be persistent, and have perseverance.

Always spend time with GOD (YAH), for He is the one who gave

you the gift to make it happen. Share your gift free at every oppor

tunity. The more you share, the more value you give it and remem

ber that GOD is rewarded. You cannot beat his giving, “I dare

you to try.” - Louise M Smith
