Thank you Shirley Caesar for your uplifting song from your album A MIRACLE IN HARLEM, YOU'RE NEXT IN LINE FOR A MIRACLE.
When it came out in 1997, the poverty pimps in Harlem hasd shut down the computer training my friends and I were doing there. All doors to reopen the training were shut tight. The environmental work we had done was ignored by Harlem's elected and appointed officials, just like in the 80's when they ignored what I was telling them about crack and AIDS.
Through it all, the good people of Harlem would tell me 'Don't worry Ms. Nayer, God is going to reward you for what you've done. You know your miracle is coming.'
They were right.
Drawing breath, with all the coordination required of atoms, organs and the like, is a miracle.
Experiencing unconditional love in any form is a miracle.
Inner peace and joy are miracles.
If you can claim any of the above, you're in the miracle line.
I pray for every soul every day. You are in my prayers.
'You're next in line for a miracle.'
