I appreciate this thread, because we can't testify enough, about HIS greatness and how HE blesses us without hesitation, daily...

• It's amazing how GOD works HIS magic. When I landed here in Atlanta in June, I'd eventually end up homeless by July due to the fact that the homeowner of the house that I was renting ended up losing the home because, as he would admit to me, he wasn't paying the mortgage company for a couple of months prior to me arriving, because he hadn't been able to rent the house out, so they foreclosed on the property. For nearly 4 weeks, I was without shelter/a home, and you talk about long, cold, crazy nights, but GOD was great to me, like HE's always been, and I prayed constantly, and I ended up finding my footing, as HE granted me shelter/a home.

• When all seemed dreary right before GOD placed me in my new home, I was blessed and able to keep my job, and my co-workers never knew anything that I was going through. I'd joined a gym as soon as I moved here, so in order to shower, I'd go there to shower everyday during this ordeal. I kept my clothes in a closet at work in an empty office space, man, you talk about crazy, it was truly a trial and heavy tribulation, but I received a truly empowering phone call one day whereby I received news that my book was finished and "FINALLY!" ready for the world. Just a week after receiving this news, a guy from the book company emailed me, and shared with me that he had recommended to a Managing Editor, that they sponsor my book and enter it into one of the country's most amazing Literary contest, and that they were going to be sending it to the Pulitzer Prize committee on my behalf. A definite blessing, because my vision is to win this coveted literary prize, and as a matter of fact, I already claim victory of this prize, I'm just waiting on them to send me my award.

• Lastly, the most empowering things that kept me focused and strong, was my knowledge of who made me/HIM. Secondly, the knowledge of knowing that I was birthed from King's seed, HIS seed, and that kept me intensely driven everyday. Lastly, the fact that I have two young sons, who will one day be able to say, "Wow! Dad endured a lot, to be able to provide for us on such a galactic level. He set the bar high for us, so, we must achieve at a level higher than he did. We have no choice because that's what's expected"

Truly Blessed,
