Preacher Mans Shoe Shine Stand

Preacher Man's Shoe Shine Stand

@Denyse @Alma remember the preacher dude at the shoe shine stand there in the hallway in between USAT and Gannett tower? Everytime I walked past him to go to the store to buy cigarettes he would start shouting “Glory, thank you Jesus, no more cigerettes, it’s coming it’s coming.” It got so I would go through the basement to avoid him. But I guess his anointing followed me wherever I went. It got so I was shouting, myself, inbetween every puff, “thank you Jesus, it won’t be long. It’s coming. I’m gonna be free from these cigarettes.”  Within months, as of July 29, 2001, I was done.  It was done.  I was smoke-free.  Freed from the bondage of my cigarette addiction!

 
Wherever you are Shoe Shine Stand Preacher Man, thank you for not giving up for me.  Thank you for praying me through.  The prayers of a righteous man availed MUCH.  I’s free now!!!
 
Seeing both your names reminded me of my USAToday days.

Who I Am

I'm an author, inspirational speaker, vocalist, and performance artist. I was a heroin addict saved from myself and the lifestyle (with all the pain that comes with it) but the mercy and grace of God. Thus, I am a late bloomer; but blooming none-the-less. I've yielded every talent given me, and am now using them to encourage, inspire, and motivate others to discover and lives God's marvelous plans for their lives. My books include my latest, Walking On Water When The Ground Ain't Enuf; I Say A Prayer For Me: One Woman's Life of Faith and Triumph (Warner); 12-Step Programs: A Resource Guide For Helping Professionals; and Contributing Author of SistahFaith: Real Stories of Pain, Truth and Triumph compiled by Marilynn Griffith (Howard/Simon&Schuster). I also perform a one-woman show with comedy infused throughout. It's who I am--by God's grace--one woman on a journey toward unwavering faith.
