The Prisoner

This Is to inspire!!

Today My freind went to prison to serve time for the wrong he'd done.

While walking through the cell block an older prisoner stopped to talk.

The prisoner told my freind "Son be careful here, show no fear."

My freind looked at the prisoner and asked the question why?

The prisoner stared my freind right in the eyes and replied. " Never show fear or doubt to those you have no clue about, prison is no place to let your guard down."

My freind says " I have no ememies here!" You are the enemy son your actions brought you to a place you never imagined you'd be, surrounded by murderers, pimps, rapists, and the likes of me.

My freind sat with his head in his hands, pondering what the prisoner said.

A light shone in his cell.

When he looked up he couldn't believe.

Yes, today my freind went to prison and there to his disbelief there he saw the face of Christ wore on the face of a theif.

Christ is in the prison, too. Many people find Him for the first time while they are serving sentences. He can forgive the most hardened sinner. (remember the dying thief who was crucified with Jesus?)
He can also use believers in prison to shine His light on the other inmates. I have a feeling that you will be faithfully praying for your friend, and prayer will make all the difference for him.

This had to be a difficult write for you losing a dear friend to such a hermetic institution but as we all know crime doesn't pay! I can only wish hopeful obeisance and your friend will be out in no time! Inspiring write! Blessings to you!

An interesting concept. Your misspelled friend seems to be very naïve about prison. It is no place to take naïvely.

As if further proof was needed that we are where He wants us. And that His will be done, and in His time, not ours. This must have been a painful write but I applaud you for tackling it and doing it well! Be well, Kathy
