Popular Hollywood actor Will Smith has declared that his success in life is down to his faith with getting him to where he is today as a father, and as an established thespian cum musician.
The Hollywood entertainer made the comments while discussing his faith during a recent sit-down interview with renowned American preacher and producer DeVon Franklin.
He was asked by Franklin whether he was a “man of faith” like the character he portrays in the movie, Richard Dove Williams Jr, father of legendary tennis players Venus and Serena Williams.
In reply, Smith said all of his life success was down to his faith.
“You can’t get where I get if you don’t love the Lord, you don’t get to sit how I sit, move how I move if you don’t love the Lord. You’d be seeing a whole lot of other repercussions,” he said candidly.
In the past, Smith has talked about the importance of his deeply religious grandmother to his own spiritual development. Her influence on his faith came up again in the interview with Franklin.
“You and I have talked about my relationship with my grandmother,” Smith said.
“So that concept of faith and that power of faith, I might be going a little too deep here, but there’s a distinction. There’s faith in God and then there’s knowledge of God, “he added.
