He restores my soul: He leads me in paths
of righteousness for His name's sake.
Psalm 23:3
This morning, I experienced a divine appointment that was arranged by the Lord...
of righteousness for His name's sake.
Psalm 23:3
This morning, I experienced a divine appointment that was arranged by the Lord...
As part of my job assignment, every weekday morning, immediately after the breakfast meal is over with, I leave the cell block where I live (D-North) and walk down the corridor to the Special Needs Unit (E-South). I have to pick up an inmate, whom I escort to the prison's Infirmary for his medicine. He's legally blind and cannot travel through the facility by himself.
But today, however, because it was "laundry day" for the guys in E-South, they were allowed to remain out of their cells longer than usual. Therefore, when I arrived at E-South, I spotted three of my Christian friends standing around. So I joined them and suggested we begin to praise the Lord. And we did. Then, a few minutes later, we began to discuss the twenty-third psalm. We also were able to pray together until it was time for me to leave with the man I had come to escort.
What a blessed day this has been. The morning's surprise gathering was a lot of fun. Our approximately seven minutes together refreshed my soul.
