Subject: let do the Work of God.
Please endeavour to use it for children of God.
with warm hearts I offer my friendship, and my greetings, and I hope this
letter
meets you in good time. It will be surprising to you to receive this proposal
from me
since you do not know me personally. However, I am sincerely seeking your
confidence
in this transaction, which I propose with my free mind and as a person of
integrity
from God.
My name is Mrs. Grace Gupta from Malaysia. I am married to Dr james Gupta
who
worked with the Malaysia embassy in South Africa for nine years, Before
he died in
2002. We were married for eleven years without a child.He died after a brief
illness
that lasted for four days.Before his death we were both born again christains.Since
his death i decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial
home which
the bible spoke against.When my husband was alife he deposited the sum of
$22million US dollars [twenty two million US dollars] with a finance company
in
Europe.Presently, these money is still with the a security company in europe.
Resently my doctor told me that i will take the grace of GOD for me to live
0ne year more due to cancer
problems. Though what disturbs me mostly is my stroke.Having known my condition
i
decided to donate this funds to church or still a christain individual that
will use
this to fund churches,orphanages and widows and also propagating the word
of God and to ensure
that the house of God is maintained.
The bible made us to understand that blessed are the hands that giveth.I
took this
decision because i don`t have any child that will inherit these money and
my
husband?s relatives are not christains and i don`t want my husband hard
earned
money to be misused by unbelievers.
I don`t want a situation where these money will be used in an ungodly manner,Hence
the reason for taking these bold decision.I am not afraid of death hence
i know where
am going.I know that am going to be in the bossom of the lord.Exodus 14vs14
says that
the lord will fight my case and i shall hold my peace.I can only
communication with you via email because of my health i cant always call
you because of my health and my inlaws around me but i will always try if
chance permits me.
I don`t want them to know about these development. Although i can do all
things
through christ that empowers me.As soon as i recieve your reply i shall
give you the
contact of the security Company in Europe.I will also fax to you all the
deposit document and a letter of authority that will enpower you as the
original-
Beneficiary of this funds.I want you and the church to always pray for me.
My happiness is that i lived a life of a worthy christain,Whoever that wants
to serve
the lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful
all through
your life.
Thanks for your cooperation.
Best regards,
Mrs Roseline.
