**Unboxing God’s Gifts**

Lenses don’t just capture beauty; they also reveal the soul. This photo of my wife embodies that perfectly.

Reflecting on our journey together since we got married, it’s astonishing to see all we’ve accomplished. From making movies to her cooking show, to performing in an opera, and even a grand show in Vegas with over a thousand people in the audience.

Let me be honest. Some people only see my wife’s beauty, and even those close to her have sometimes suggested she shouldn’t pursue certain things, especially singing. But I believe differently. I think she should explore every opportunity she hasn’t yet tried. In business, we call it venturing into the “Red Sea.” With over 35 years of stellar work, 38 movies, a feature in Time magazine, and hosting MTV, she has nothing left to prove. Instead, she should continue to unbox the gifts God has bestowed upon her.

God said, “Ask and it will be given to you.” We ask every time we embark on a new project, and God faithfully answers. Our approach is playful yet driven by the pursuit of excellence. If you know her like I and her friends do, you’ll see her pure heart, overflowing with talent and compassion.

Like my wife’s willingness to explore with godly confidence and humility, don’t be afraid to restart. Continue to Ask, Seek, and Knock. A.S.K. and unbox the surprises God has in store for your life.
