People often ask me what I do with my time…
For one, I work. I'm the Protestant chaplain's clerk. I've been doing this for a couple of years now. Prior to this, I worked for twenty-one months as a clerk in the library. Only, my heart attack and a quadruple bypass surgery cut my time in the library short.
I stay active, as much as is possible, within the walls of a maximum-security facility. I live in the prison's general population. But I know that, probably because of the way the media often portrays me, many think I'm locked up in a cell all day long in solitary confinement. Thankfully, this is not the case.
With God's help, I continue to live out my faith in a difficult and challenging environment. I could look at all the negatives about prison life and live with regret and despair. But I have chosen to look to the God of all hope. He is my sustainer and my source of strength. He is the Lord of my salvation (Romans 15:13).
