I just want to share this testimony for the Glory of the Lord, and that it might come across some one that needs a little encouragement today. I am disabled and ill, but I'm learning every day to be more Thankful in my storm. I had it upon my heart about a week or so ago to start writing prisoners to send some of Christ's light and Love that in over flowing in my life right now. And I am so very blessed to find this simple way being sick in bed, to get off my pity pot, and reach some lonely lost souls who have lost all hope! Tears....
I could make this really long, but just want to share a Beautiful high light moment I had today, to share with you how our Lord answers prayer. As I was writing these prisoner's and getting a lot of response from their prison cells as they have been opening up their souls and hearts to me and to the Lord, I got a sudden burning desire to try to also write a prisoner who was sick inside a prison hospital. The reason for this, is because I came across a prison hospital in my state, but could not find anyway to write to any of them. This burden increased in my heart over the past 2 day's, I was praying to the Lord asking him, there must be a prisoner that's in 2 prisons at once, one in their sickness, and one who is hand cuffed to their bed. I'm in one sense a prisoner who is hand cuffed to my bed in many way's, as I'm many times to sick and weak to get out of bed!
Then today, I got a email letter from a female inmate that I had already been sharing the gospel with who has been very discouraged, and she say's, I have not told you that I am sick and have breast cancer, and have a tumor in my head! Tears... I about dropped my computer on the floor! In God's Love and Mercy, he showed me that he's with me, leading me in this, and helping me to be a wounded healer for him, and in this little way to help be His hands extended! Thank you for listening to my testimony, and please pray that the Lord will keep giving me strength to do this for Him! I LOVE YOU ALL! Brother Derek
P.S. Could you say a little prayer for this Prisoner who has cancer, and who needs Christ? Her name is Lydia Lynn who is in a Florida Prison!
