I began to find that all the thoughts I had
before, even wanting to kill myself, had gone.
I realised that prison was not the end of my
life but a new beginning. For 41 years I did
not know that God was near me and looking
after me. I was in the lowest place, in prison,
but God was with me even there. Now the
most important thing to me is knowing that I
have a new friend for ever, Jesus Christ.
Even though I am still in prison, I am happy
because I know that happiness does not
come from the things around us, it comes
from inside us. The last few years have been
happier than all the other 41 when I did not know Jesus.
