Cheryl and I got to minister with Forgiven Ministries out of North Carolina on January 24. We picked up Eddie Bishop's two children and their mother in McComb, Ms about 7AM and got them home about 7Pm that night.
To see the Dads and Granddads with their children brought all of us to tears. The love and healing in the gym was unbelievable. There were probably 100 kids and 40 dads or granddads.
Cheryl has a great update on the day on her blogspot, cheryl-acceptancewithjoy.blogspot.com. Please go see her perspective of prison ministry.
Please be in prayer for Forgiven Ministries, they do the "One Day with God" at least a couple of weekends a month, if not more. Scottie also wants to use our tract "Have I gone to far for God to love me as I am" in her ministry. Ain't God good.
There are so many opportunities to minister, JUST get involved somewhere!
Weekly Devotional
By Max Lucado
Dependable people are like diamonds. They are precious because they are so rare. Experience and know-how are great assets, but they are not much good without trustworthiness. Talent is wonderful, but by itself its not enough. Far better to be a faithful christian. Are you? Like Timothy and Epaphroditus , are you a role model for others? Determine to be a person others can rely on. Keep your word. Show up. Be consistent. Live for others. Take risks . Be a "go to" guy or gal. Make it your goal, by God's grace, to exemplify a life of spiritual steadiness.
