Money. I’ve been in the money business for 31 years. I’m in the money business not only as insurance provider, to which I have devoted 20 years, but as plain provider for my family, being married for 31 years. The kids are grown now, with monies and lives of their own. I’m more focused at insurance now. Oh, what a beautiful tapestry we weave, when first we practice insurance (borrowed from “Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive,” by Walter Scott). It’s not only money, folks. When you talk about “dying too early or living too long,” you touch a chord in your prospect’s symphony of concerns. First you talk about earnings, savings, estate taxes, final expenses, money left behind, then you talk about love for their children, entering the inner sanctum of their hearts. Money is a means to an end, and the end is always love for others. I thought I missed my calling when I didn’t enter seminary in second year high school. I didn’t. My calling is alive. My calling is life. Jesus instructed us to love one another because we will die if we don’t. Life happens when you tune in to others who are just as loving, just as scared as you, and we strengthen one another in mysterious ways. We were designed that way. — Will

Jose P. Cabalu I was in the engineering/project management field for 30 years. But God had better plans for me – to be in this vocation of loving my neighbours. LOVE – is there a better reason for buying life insurance? Doing this for more than 8 years and counting. Thanks for this piece kabatch.
