Called from Failure: Featuring: the Choices . . . We Make! Charles A. Gaskins Sr.

Called from Failure is the second book; that our Lord, has placed upon my heart the task of writing. The first book written by me; at the inspiration of the Lord, our God, being . . . Preparing the Way! was (and still is) filled with hopeful enlightments. This book Called from Failure . . . being also filled with hopeful enlightments . . . but much more! As the Lord, our God, has had me to reveal much more of myself. That you and others may know the hope and degree of my calling. The Sower (A minister of Teaching). Being at one time, lost and in darkness. Filled with many faults, and carrying a hatred towards myself and many others; because of the poor choices that I had made . . . in life. Seeking faults in others, while being blinded by my own. Knowing the Word of God, but putting fun before right. Seeking after righteousness; while trying to hold on to the unfaithful acts of yesterday. Trading life for livelihood . . . as if it was indeed, my possession . . . to trade. Heavens forbid! Truly God has a calling for many of us that our eyes were not meant to foresee. As you come to know the Lord, our God . . . you will find (as I did) that the Light of the Lord, is not to be seen with your eyes. For enlightments . . . comes from within. You'll know when you've found it; because compassion will have you compelled to cry for others . . . more so than for yourself! It is then, that you are being shaped and molded into an image of Christ, Jesus . . . to be used by God.
