I came to know the Lord Jesus years ago, but allowed sin and compromise to hinder my relationship with God. Now I'm in prison, but in His faithfulness, Jesus is helping me to live a life consistent with my faith. I'm convinced there is no way to live a victorious life and have joy in difficult times unless you have a personal, intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. Through prayer, Bible reading, worship and fellowship, I'm discovering who God created me to be.

If you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you this day to open your heart and receive Jesus by confessing your sins to God, turning from your old ways and putting your trust in Jesus. Ask God to forgive you and free you from sin's punishment and from sin's power. God loves you and is calling you to come to Him for a new life that will never end.
