About the Book No matter how many trials and tribulations may come upon us in this life, just know that the struggle can be defeated through Prayer. No matter what the situation is or even if it seems as though there is no light at the end of the tunnel or even if the crossroad seems very confusing; please believe that prayer through Jesus to God is real. He will hear your prayer and answer your prayer according to His will. I believe God answers our prayers with a yes and sometimes with a no. I am reminded of Paul, who asked God 3 times to remove the thorn from his flesh. II Corinthians 12: 5-10. I believe God answers prayer according to His will & what is best for us.

About the Author God is Love. First, I would like to give honor to GOD who is the head of my life for putting up with a 'was lost, but, now I am found' young man like me, and for one day saving me, so my soul would not be lost and my spirit can live on. Thank you my Father for your son Jesus and for Jesus leaving the Holy Spirit to keep us until he comes back to receive us. One church, the body of Christ. Well I was born and raised in a very poor ghetto neighborhood, now they call them the projects of section A. We were so poor that I did not even know until a later age that we were on welfare. I did not let it get me down. I had big dreams and plus Mom and Dad raised us up in the church. I loved to sing, dance, draw, run track, play basketball, play music, write poems and tell jokes to make every laugh. I never disrespected my Mother and Dad to this date. But I got with the wrong crowds and let me tell you. The devil, satan and that jokers demons turned my world upside down for a long time. You will laugh and cry as you read my book. I served as a Kitchen worker in High School at an Old Folks home and love talking with the older people. I served with the United States Military, I served as a Correctional Officer II for several Prisons, I served as a shift Supervisor at a Boot Camp, and I served as a Deputy Sheriff and as a Court Security/Bailiff Officer as well. Some of you will never understand my story until you experience God's Glory for yourself. Just believe me that I really do not want you to go through the things I went through. I want you to survive from all this evil in the world and I am going to do my best to help everyone I can. i really had to drop all my pride and let God take total control...I really had my life all messed up from the floor up. But I knew that if I just kept praying and planting good seeds on good ground, I would make it as a very successful young man in this life we live. I realized I had missed God's voice at the beginning of this Christian Journey. But, My GOD, He fixed it all, He cleaned me from the inside out with the fruits of the spirits,. He let me know that according to John 8:12 that Jesus is the light of this world. he also let me Know that JESUS shall save his people in Matthew 1:21. So I must let my light shine like Jesus. I cannot be a shame of God. I will not be A shame of my Heavenly Father...God Loves you and I do too, and there ain't a thank you do about it except put the devil under your feet . And remember that to Love is God.

Excerpt

LET FAMILY THAT PRAY TOGETHER, CONTINUE TO STAY TOGETHER

Romans 8: 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that Love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.

Romans 8: 35 Who shall separate us from the Love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Romans 8: 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that Loved us.

Romans 8: 38- 39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, not life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Revelation 20: 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before GOD; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were Judged out of those things which were writ- ten in the books, according to their works.

Revelation 20: 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
