Gospel singer Frank Edwards has recounted how his mother discouraged him closing a $320,000 deal that would have given a group control of his music catalogue.

He said his mother advised against the deal and even confiscating his international passport to prevent him from finalising it.

At the time, Edwards said he didn?t understand his mother?s reasoning but he has since come to appreciate her discernment.

He mentioned how she had given him N150,000 naira to start a studio and the instincts proved correct.

IEdwards expressed gratitude for his mother?s selfless love, guidance, and unwavering support.

He thanked her for being a source of wisdom and strength, always providing guidance and protection.

Edwards wrote: ?Thank you for everything, this space is not enough to write about you. Thank you for an impenetrable wall of fire! Thank for always telling me the mind of God about the things I?m doing, Non of your words fell to the ground because you truly hear from God ..

?The very first time in my life years ago I was to close $320,000 deal from a group that wanted to almost own my entire catalogue.

?You said NO ! And I quote you. ? The 150,000 naira gave you to start that studio is bigger than that money, just give it time . They are not of God?

?Infact you took my international passport away from me Just to ensure I don?t travel to close that deal , and I was laughing because I didn?t need to travel to close it but then I listened to you !

?After u said that I was thinking How is 150,000 Naira bigger than $320,000 .. BUT NOW I UNDERSTAND.

?There is so much to say !! But like I said .. this space is not enough!! Happy Mother?s Day mum!!!? (The Nation)
