Dr. Dobson the man requesting advice is a chief executive officer the highest-ranking person of the largest healthcare institution in Florida.The doctor and CEO's son Jason was angry at his sister Nya. Jason had an issue with Greg the brother of Caleb the young man Nya is dating. The feel-ings of desperation and unhappiness had made Jason drink more than he normally would.Meanwhile the bishop had his own share of concerns. He and his lovely wife Karia Anna really wanted to have children. In time God told Karia Anna she would have a son and she trusted God. One night after a movie and dinner Ted Pernell was helping her load the dishwasher when suddenly God reminded him of a note that more than a week ago an elderly lady Ms. Taylor slipped into his suit pocket after church.Bishop Pernell quickly finished loading the dishes and immediately went into his bedroom and then into his clothes closet. He retrieved the handwrit-ten letter from Ms. Taylor and it read:I had a dream last night. I dreamed I was sitting watching a relay race. The transfer team had three strong long-distance runners and you were leading this team.This is a spiritual race not a short race not for sprinters; it is a test of en-durance . . . The next runner was the young deacon Caleb the Lord says he will be a great prophet. Next he will pass the baton to your biological son. You are to name him Gath . . .Bishop Pernell reread the letter several times. The extraordinary prophecy took a while to sink in.
