From Allah to Jesus, Omar’s story

Updated: Jul 28



In 2012 I was transferred to the Michael unit and I got a job working for food services, around my 45 days on the unit I was placed on investigation that lasted for 37 days with no one to talk to, it was the game the Michael unit inmates play so I got in the game. In

2017 I got my first cellphone Case with a major investigation, because I would not corporate I got slammed and they went so far as to attack my mother and sister when leaving from one of our visits, staff accused my mom blue tooth fitted watch was a phone watch so my sister stepped in to explain and she was told to be quiet my sister lost it they called an ICS on my sister she was removed from my visiting list for four years. I did not learn as I continued in my beliefs that all I needed was enough money to get out of prison. In 2021 during the pandemic I got my second cellphone Case which hurt my family when we almost lost my little brother. One day Wayne Edson came to visit me on k pod 8 building and this is when God got a hold on my life. I met Wayne some years back I was in one of his first class on Michael unit called the promise principle, at the time I was still a Muslim so Wayne kept his weekly visit every Wednesday he continued to demonstrate the love of Jesus Christ to me and shared what God did for him. The week I received a jpay letter form Wayne he continued in my life loving me and was lifting me up always so it was around this time that I got popular this would be my last phone Case I had 8 months to the good when this happened, but that day when they came to search it was only by the grace of God they walked over it and didn’t see it. That week I called upon Jesus Christ in 25 cell k pod and some think I was trying to pulled me down and I called an the name Jesus 2 more time and I was freed some that Friday, a brother WHO I work with came with the field minster and they prayed for me and I cried a river that day I was a new person my heart and mind was made new . Brother Wayne rejoiced and praised the Lord my first calling was a light in the darkness for a long time I was just that when I came back to population I signed up for 7 classes and completed all of them, two of which Wayne teaches at this time I did the Kairos walk, the love in that gym was something I can only sum up as love joy and peace it as if I was not locked up for those four days .but my past love for women still had a hold on me March 27, 2023 I was in the kitchen cleaning for the annual inspection when two of the K9 officers came and gave me a UA and served me a case for possession of meth that my

cellie claimed was not his. On May 14, 2023 I was made a G5 and S3, I felt the darkness near I was in L pod 9 cell brother Wesley filed my grievance, he knows his business that Monday Wesley come to visit me encouraging me to keep my faith and not to turn back. The next Wednesday brother Wayne came back to see me with news that they knew that the cap that was tested did not belong to me and that my grievance could take anywhere from a month to six months before I get any answer, brother Wayne looked me in my eye's and said these words “Omar God has a plan's for your life, God is going to use you in a big way, keep faith and trust in Jesus Christ” brother Wayne placed his hands on the cell and said let's pray for this to be over turned in three weeks, I love brother Wayne like the father I needed, but at that time I know it was crazy but I closed my eyes and received the words my brother prayed over me and it was three weeks to that day I got my grievance back and was afraid to open it, God turned it around, He restored me, He gave me more, He opened my eye's He removed people from my life and placed His people in my life He gave me this peace that I feel in the depth of my spirit and people come see it my name is Omar Pringle the light that shines into the darkness I pray for you my brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ we love.
