Seeing Jesus
Last Sunday I saw Jesus in prison.
The guest speaker at the worship service was Nate Terry, an ex-drug dealing, drug abusing, gang leader until his sin and the police caught up with him. Now Nate is a pastor.
I first met Nate when I was an inmate in the Tazewell County Jail. It was great to see him again, even better when I walked out with him. I saw Jesus in Nate.
After the first service 11 volunteers and I headed to the cells to speak the men individually. I saw the face of Jesus in the volunteers.
The first cell I went into an inmate had his Bible open and was sharing the Good News with a non-believer. I saw Jesus in that inmate.
I wasn’t surprised to see Jesus last Sunday because He assures us when we visit those in prison we are visiting Him.
