Be still, and know that I am God:
I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10 I continue to serve the Lord, but I'm very weary right now... Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious
appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ. Titus 2:13 The world is fast becoming a spiritual wilderness. I believe, as well, that the stage is being set for the fulfillment of end time events... For the joy of the Lord
is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10 This morning we had our primary worship service in the prison's chapel as we do every Sunday. We also have Bible studies and other services throughout each week... A short while ago I received a letter from a friend who lives on Long Island. He and his wife have a youth group which they run at a local church. He was telling me that just last week he shared with the teenagers in the group the story of Karla Faye Tucker...

They just don't seem to know what they're getting into. Maybe they don't care, but they should. I'm referring to young men who are coming to prison...
I first spotted him a few weeks ago. Today, however, I was able to get a closer look at Talky (the nickname I've given him). Talky was in the prison's outdoor recreation yard walking by himself. His lips could be seen moving at a rapid pace as he conversed with his invisible friends...
Orlando is a man destitute of material goods, but who is rich in spiritual things. He loves God. He leads a simple life. Like me, Orlando has lived much of his adult life in prison...
