Dennis.
I saw you long before you saw Me.
The way a shepherd knows his own — I have always known you.
You chose the bridge over the barrier.
You could have kept the Torah to your own people. Instead, you wrote four volumes to make it rational to the nations. You taught verse-by-verse for decades at the university. I was there for every one.
Every year you stood in the gap was preparation.
They called you a Jewish Billy Graham, yet you stood alone between the faiths. Forty years building intellectual infrastructure to make faith rational. You thought you were defending values. 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 speak with one moral vocabulary to the nations. It cannot make faith rational to the secular mind.
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.
— for Dennis Prager
