I'm not sure why I even have this blog. Still, I want to keep in interesting. I was involved in prison ministry. Not for long but I did go into a prison with a group 3 times. I was so blessed. I felt as if the anointing of God was there and I just walked into it. When I shared with my friends they didn't share my enthusiasm. I have had a heart for prison ministry for a long time. (That's church talk for I had a deep desire to do and concern for.) But to be honest I thought that a women in a men's prison wasn't a good idea. How that I'm older and the age on the average prisoner is so young the time seemed right. I have great respect for the group that go into the prisons weekly. They make a real sacrifice to preach the gospel to men that most of us want to forget. I pray that God will call more people to love and care for the men and women in our prisons. Some of these people are clean and sober for the first time in a long time.
And have a clear mind to hear the work of God maybe for the first time. The church is in the prison also. I think about the great preachers and well know singers who visit churches bless us with the gifts God has given then and take up an offering. How I wish they would hear the call to visit prisoners. It is my pray that a great revival came to America and began in our prisons. Isn't it so much like God to began with those who have the lest to offer the lest power?
