Our church in South Sudan has several outreach ministries, including primary and secondary schools, orphanages, military barracks, a blind school, and the community as a whole during visitation.
I love all the services we're in. But for me, there is one service that seems to stand above the rest. The men there sing triumphantly of Jesus' power and love. Their voices are deep and strong, and resonate in my soul long after I leave. The images there are carved into my mind and heart.
I have to fight back the tears literally every single time because the presence of God is so strong it's overwhelming.
Where is this place?
The prison.
"Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much; but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little." Luke 7:47
Maybe that explains it, I'm not sure. I just know these men know what it means to worship God.
They understand freedom in Christ far more than I probably ever will.
I pray I can learn from them.
