ALONE ONE NIGHT IN SHAME AND DESPAIR
I LOOKED FOR MY HELP BUT NONE WAS THERE.
NO FUTURE...BUT PRISON, NO PAST....JUST PAIN
I LOOKED IN THE MIRROR MY TEARS, THE...RAIN.
BY JUSTICE CONDEMNED IN TIME TO DIE
MY ONLY HOPE GOD’S MERCY FOR HIS GRACE DID I CRY.
THEN A SEED PLANTED SOMEWHERE LONG AGO
IN THE MIDST OF MY SORROW BEGAN TO GROW.
THIS SEED WAS CHRIST WHO DIED FOR ME
IN JAIL WITH JESUS I AM SET FREE.
NO LONGER IN HELL OF MY SINFUL WAYS
HE’S MADE ME A NEW PERSON WHO LOVES AND PRAYES.
THOUGH SEASONS COME AND HOLIDAYS PASS
IN JAIL WITH JESUS MY HOPE DOES LAST.
SO I DO SHARE WITH YOU MY FRIEND
IN JAIL WITH JESUS IT’S NOT THE END!
AN INMATE.
I have never felt more love and appreciation for my life in Christ as I have going into the Georgia State Prison and YDC in Georgia. Its true, you’ll find Jesus there too.
Many Sons, Grandsons, and Fathers and Mothers are waiting for The Church of God.
Many young and old men, and women are spending life behind bars because the curse of sin reigned within their lives. The scripture, “many are called, but few are chosen” not only deals with the Church of God, but it is an high calling of God to be able to endure the powers of satan and tread the halls where the most vile of our society dwell in the shadows of the darkness of this world. Crying silently within their small cells for someone to come and tell them they are loved, and that God understands their sinfulness. That’s why he sent his son to die upon the cross, lead them into prayer of repentance and set their souls free from shame and bondage. The woman caught in the very act of adultery, was not condemned by our Lord, because he knew we all fall short of the Glory of God because of the fall of Adam and Eve, and our righteousness is as a filthy rag in his sight, yet he loved us enough to die with our sins upon his back, while we were yet sinners, should we not judge, but go and love, go and tell, go and pray?
