When I arrived at the prison, I had to pass through numerous locked gates on my way to the hospital. How strange and intimidating it felt to hear yet another door lock behind me as we went into the depths of the prison. I couldnt help but feel a twinge of fear as the guards took us past scummy looking men hanging out in the hallways. Finally, we came to my fathers room and I could see him through the open door. He was lying in his bed gazing at the ceiling and his face was shining! He hadnt noticed that I had come, so I stood enraptured, wondering at the change in my Daddys countenance. While I was at the prison, I had a chance to talk alone with the prison doctor, and was encouraged by his comments as well. Your dads story needs to be told, he said to me. He is truly a changed man. Other people need to know that God can change anybody, even child molesters. There are many people inside these locked doors, and outside in the world, who have lost hope that God would do anything for them. Your fathers changed life is a testimony of Gods faithfulness to any sinner who chooses to repent.
