Set Free… For Real!
Not realizing her soul was a caged bird with clipped wings,
Mara entered the jail; a hard and difficult place to be.
She didn’t know when she entered that she was about to be set completely free.
One day, while in jail, the jailer began to distribute small Bibles to the women in Mara’s area. Accepting the small booklet, Mara opened it and began to read. Over the next days some of the women started getting together to study the Words written in their pocket Gospels. Mara disclosed,
That simple act of receiving a pocket Bible in jail, made a huge difference in my life.
I studied the Scripture and learned about how Jesus came to set me free.
Reading the Gospel led me to ask Jesus to come into my heart and life.
Mara was not only set on a new path, but she realized that her soul was set free … for real! God and Jesus now gave her the guidance she needed in her life. She recalled,
When I left the jail, I was physically set free,
but when I entered the jail and received the Gospel into my heart
I was spiritually set free forever.
Mara wants to do the work God has given her. She now wants to take the Pocket Testament Gospels to the local jail to help others meet Jesus and find the same freedom she has found.
