Excellent Things 

7/15/2008

 
Sing unto the Lord; for He has
done excellent things; this is
known in all the earth.
Psalm 147:3


The Spirit of the Lord has been touching lives in a unique way, and men are being drawn to Christ...
For instance, this past Sunday, even though it was very hot and humid, we had more than the average number of prisoners in attendance. During the summer months many of the guys will opt for the outdoor recreation yard as opposed to attending a ninety minute service in a poorly ventilated chapel.

Furthermore, I was encouraged to see several new faces of men who've been at this facility for awhile, but never expressed an interest in going to church until they showed up this past Sunday. I know that Christ wishes to touch their hearts. He offers His forgiveness to everyone. And this is one of the reasons that I and my fellow Christians continue to seek the Lord and to pray. We want to see as many as possible enter the kingdom of God through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. And the Lord is good because He allows me to see the answer to these prayers.

D.B.
