The letter below was mailed to us at Berean Prison Ministry and I would like to share it here. This is a letter asking for prayer but also thanks those helping with this ministry.
Dear B.P.M,
I wanted to write a personal letter to you to share my life. On the17th of this month, this year I tried to commit suicide here in prison. I struggle with myself about my past and often at times wonder who I am. (No I'm not crazy) I just feel lost. I claim to be a believer but yet I do the type of things I don't understand. I'm hungry for God, for His Word but its as if I 'm holding on to something. I argue with this voice in my head that tries to steer me away from God, it often wins out and I don't know what to do. I was placed on suicide observation being that I attempted to do so all my property was taken from me. I just now got the privilege of mail and pen and paper back. Yours was the first piece I received. I eagerly done the courses. They help me realize that someone does care. I don't have my Bible, but there was a piece of an Gideon one in my cell. I think it's NKS, not sure but I"m doing the best I can. God knows I need help, I want help and I'm confused about me. I need you all to pray for me. I'm going to ask for prayers. I know the Word tells us that Prayer makes thinks happen, esp. when there of the righteous. I want you to know I do appreciate all that you do for people like me. God will reward you!
Pray for him, his signature isn't legible so I don't know his name but God DOES! God knows exactly who he is and what he needs.
We had a good amount of mail and plenty of helpers to get that mail processed. Below are a few pictures from today.
