Unexpected Letter
January 9th, 2009Accident or Intervention?
Because of a clerical error, I received a document that should have gone to someone else. It was a court’s notice of filing deficiency. The plaintiff was a prison inmate. They like to sue the authorities.
Nothing in my life seems to happen accidentally these days. I was going to shove this thing in an envelope and mail it to him with a Post-It saying it had come to me by mistake, but I decided instead to include a short note saying I would offer a prayer for this guy.
Maybe you will join me. I just ask that God lead him to turn his life around and give faith and obedience a chance. His name is Charles Jones.

I will add him to my prayers, as I also pray for the inmates in the local correctional institution as I drive by it several times each week. Here is another one who needs prayers: almost 4 weeks old, this little boy has been diagnosed with congenital hyperinsulinism and flown from rural Kansas to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia http://www.chop.edu/consumer/index.jsp
Thank you for your inspiration!
