Frustration!

Last week we received a letter from H., an inmate asking me (Carl) to come so he could give his heart and soul to the Lord, with my help. Although he’s at Green Bay Correctional, a prison we don’t visit very often, because of his urgency, I made plans to see him yesterday.

Driving the 70 minutes from Fond du Lac was fun because Spring has finally sprung in Wisconsin! When H. came to the visiting room, he could not stop talking about what God is doing in his life! He truly had already given his life to the Lord, but said to me, “there is something about you that made my life do a 360.” He wanted me to pray with him.

But, after 20 minutes of his non-stop sharing, our visit was terminated because of a practice tornado drill! We did not get to pray together. He was not as discouraged as I was. In fact, he was elated at the visit, albeit short. He begged us to come and give Bible Studies there in Spanish. Oh how we wish we could! Please pray for God’s way of answering his request, and for my next visit.
