Whilst still meditating, a figure was planted into my mind. I did not discuss it with anyone. Then I made up my mind that since that figure had already been planted, I should go ahead and make the pledge as it was not a mistake,”.
“I hadn’t planned on any figure; I was actually confused as other countries were making their pledges. This means that God had planned it.
