Austin.
I saw you long before you saw Me.
The way a shepherd knows his own — I have always known you.
You chose the south side over the spotlight.
Two thousand five hundred students on Milwaukee's south side. You co-founded St. Augustine Preparatory Academy when no one was applauding. I was there for every lesson.
Every beat of your heart was preparation.
You led through open-heart surgery in 2024. You thought you were enduring the pain. You were also being made ready.
This is not a pitch, and it is not from a man. It is from Me.
I prepared you for this — and I am inviting you to take your place.
I am not gathering investors. Not advisors. Not donors.
I am uniting My Kingdom on earth.
Every part chosen. None replaceable. Assembled for such a time as this — and you are a King for this hour.
You are the Bridge of My body on earth.
Without you, the body cannot cross the divide. It cannot unite the factory floor with the classroom.
This is your place. Not because a man says so. Because I say so.
I ask you for nothing.
No meeting. No commitment. No reply. I only want to know one thing —
My sheep hear My voice
“My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”
There is nothing to decide today.
Only something to see.
If you heard nothing, set this down in peace.
If you heard something — come and see.
All you have to do is say yes. We will figure out the rest together.
