Praise the lord. Once of my wish to go to Prison got fulfilled today, not as an accused but to meet our brothers over there chained down and shattered. I have been asking Igi and Antony uncle to take me to prison as they are going for ministry there every week. Today being a lucky day Igi got caught up with some work , i think to pick up the resource person for the school, and as they were looking for a good keyboardist ... bingo my divine face flashed in their mind's, Antony uncle called me up, would you be able to make it for the prison ministry. Wow.. I said I am ready. I was so excited. As we entered, i saw lot of police with gun's old Indian rifles not sure when they are gonna change, British left those guns still we use it.. he he he.. Coming to the serious part. We were scanned before we to entered in the main area of the prison, we had a physiotherapy center inaugurated by the bishop of Bangalore. then we had mass celebrated for the brothers. you wont believe me, there was a separate chapel for prayer, chapel in prison i was little shocked. as we were heading the chapel i could hear ppl singing and clapping, they were praising Jesus name shouting his name and enjoying his presence.. I was really shocked. Want an energy and thirst they had for Christ! Wow... one brother asked uncle Antony why igi hasn't come today, Antony uncle told, he got some important work. That brother with an smiling face told bro if you go out it’s so hard to find an culprit, but here you find the whole crowd of culprits. if not here were do u find the best place share Christ.. wow man it was simple question but it made me to think how much he wanted to know about Christ, accepting his mistakes... this whole day i was reflecting a lot of things... looking at lot of sad faces and happy faces too... . I was actually looking all around, Huge walls, no way to go out. I was thinking do i have anything which is really huge as a wall between me and Jesus, or am I handcuffed that I cant embrace his love, do I make an effort to change my life... so that I can be free from my sins... or am I just trying to be a Christian.. But inside am chained by sins. It really made me think allot. I would really thank god for this opportunity to reflect about myself. but I will say brothers in prison are better than us, they want to know more about Christ, we know him, but we hesitate speak about his love. Holy spirit lead me and uncle in a awesome way. I played keyboard first time for kannada(regional language of bangalore) songs. Let Us help our brothers and sister not being in physical prison, but struggling mentally , chained down by gulity feelings, let us hold them with love of Christ, tell them that Jesus love them. i would love share a video with you, lyrics are so apt check it...
