Well, I’ve had an interesting weekend. A friend of mines name popped up on my Jpay account while I was writing Kristina. Since we have a 15-minute time limit and then have to wait an hour to get back on, I stopped mid thought and told Kristina that this friend's name had come up. Then I proceeded to write this friend. To us inmates, seeing a new name come up, or receiving a message/snail mail letter, well it's great! So many feel forgotten. Frankly it hurts, especially when we hear so and so is going to write then it never happens. Now for me, with this person, its special. See, I love her! Matter of fact, she’s like the little sister I have never wanted! LOL! I failed her as a friend many years ago. Because I let my then girlfriend control who I talked to. I’ll tell you what ya’ll, thank God for the power of the Holy Spirit! Living your life to please others is exhausting! 2 Timothy 1:7 CAMP says “For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but of power and of love and of calm and well balanced mind and discipline and self-control.”
Sometimes I think “If only I’d known”” this truth or that truth of the gospel. However, because of how I lived my life, all the hurts and pains that happened to me and things I’ve done, well all of that has given me a message! A story of strength. I’d been running for God since like 5th grade I believe. Mrs. Wolf was my English teacher, that I do remember. At the time I wanted to be a preacher. Bringing my Bible to school got me made fun of even more lol so I stopped. Since I have a relationship with Christ, which I was missing my whole life, now I have no fear of what people think of me. It took me coming to the end of myself to give my everything to God. What’s stopping you from putting your trust in Jesus?
