Throughout a career as an international public speaker and trainer, I’ve discovered that what I consider most important is my ministry. I believe that God has created each of us for greatness and abundance.

I now have the wisdom and maturity to recognize that all I am, have been, or will ever be is due to the grace of God.

I have learned to live a life full of gratitude. I understand that the more gratitude that I express, the more I have to be grateful for. I understand that God has endowed me with the ultimate power to be able to speak to my life. To create the world that I desire. This power is called Faith.

I love God, and I live to please him. He created me in his image and likeness. As he is, so I am. I believe there is God, and that he loves us more than we love ourselves.

– Wrenwyck Williams
