Within the past several weeks, it seems as if the Lord has been placing more people in my path for me to share my testimony with, or to simply encourage them...
Not only in this prison, but also outside these walls. God has made ways for me to proclaim His name and to tell people of His goodness.
Today, a student in North Dakota will be sharing my story with her professor and classmates. She is a Psychology major who, last month, had asked me to prepare a message she could share with them. It will be incorporated into her oral presentation and then in her written report.
Also, a ministry team of Christian lay people are leaving today for Cuba. They are from Times Square Church in New York City. A friend of mine gave them 1,000 copies of the "SON OF HOPE" testimony tracts in Spanish to distribute in Cuba. I am thrilled and thankful about this.
And, lastly, today I was blessed with a wonderful visit from some friends. Tim and his son, Chad, came to see me along with Don and his son, Eli, and another young man in his 20s, Tim. They usually come to see me about once per year, and we encourage each other in our walk with Christ. They're very involved with youth ministry.
During our visit of several hours, we shared amongst ourselves what the Lord is doing in each of our lives. We also prayed for one another. Visits such as this help to strengthen and bolster my faith.
Truly, my life has come a long way since those dark and sad days of 1976-77.
