PREFACE

Father, I ask that You bless the reader of this book. I ask that You release the comfort of Your presence and Holy Spirit upon each person so that he or she may experience Your serenity through the humility of Your willing servant.

I want to take this moment to engage you, the reader, the one whose eyes are soon to gaze upon the pages of this book. My hope is that you not only read this book but also allow for the passion of the author to not be mere words, taking it with a grain of salt. I would like to first engage you with a dear and near scripture of mine, Colossians 4:6. Let your speech at all times be gracious and pleasant, seasoned with salt. For this very reason, I have been blessed with the gracious words that you will find within the pages of this book, and I wish to impart the granted words of wisdom and life to enlighten those who find themselves gazing upon the very pages of this book of authenticity.

Now, Father, I ask that You humbly receive all that I write and impart the triumphs, adversities, and trials of afflictions. Share all the broken pieces that You have taken upon Your love and put them back together. Make a testimony and let it be a reflection unto them so that all brokenness can be put back together if it is returned to the Potter’s hand. Make it so that it will be used for Your will and glory. Amen.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I truly thank God first. He has allowed me another opportunity to write, share, and express the many encounters I have had in both my life and my life incarcerated. I give all glory to Him because it would not be possible to have lived my life without the tremendous amount of mercy and grace that He has given unto me through the sacrifice and love of His Son, Jesus Christ. Honestly, there is no other way I can or need
