You might not know what your gift is, but everybody has a gift.
All of us have a gift
and I believe it's our responsibility
to share that gift with people.
That is our purpose. That is my purpose.
My parents taught me that.
And I truly enjoy the work I do, but my calling,
my purpose and my gift is to minister through music to people
and that's what I like to do when I'm off work.

In order to be able to do your job effectively,
I think you have to have outlets.
I think you have to have other avenues.
It makes working worthwhile.
If you go to work everyday, you go home,
you might watch a little TV, you eat and go to bed.
That's not living. That's not life.
All day long I'm preparing myself.
My mind has been focused,
I listen to my music, put my headset on while I'm tying at the computer.
And my mind is on, when I leave here,
I'm going to go out and encourage someone else.
I'm going to go out and meet these people
who don't get a chance to go out.
Go and visit them and just try to encourage them,
especially during this time of year.
We're going to have a good time.
We'll sing a little bit of Christmas stuff
and then I'll do a little bit of my stuff
and try to get them to, encourage them just to clap.
Sometime I just look for a smile, that's all I need, is a smile.
After a day of working at our job, the CBP, you need an outlet.
You have to have something.
I would encourage everyone to find something
that you enjoy and do it and give back.
Thank you for blessing all of us.
Thank you.
