5.

Tonight I feel the need, the urge, the call to pray as I haven’t prayed in years. I am praying now, even as I write, even as I don’t know how to pray. Only that I must.

The Bible says that the Spirit intercedes for us, with groans words can’t express. That’s what I need right now, Lord. Intercession from the Spirit, because I don’t know how to pray.

The dinner just arrived. Burrito. I find I am looking forward to burrito night. It is one of the more palatable items on the fancy menu here. They like to keep the food laden with starch and carbs, to keep the prisoners happy. The burrito is their crowning achievement, and it comes as a small oasis in this desert of a cell.

The ravens brought meat to Elijah. I am almost positive that the burrito contains meat of some sort, but I do not ask for details.

Tonight, another message in a tin foil envelope came with the burrito. It was once again in King James: “Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.”

No Scripture reference, though it sounded familiar enough. The book of Hebrews, I thought, and looked it up. Sure enough, right there in chapter three.

Someone was playing with me, someone who was following my case. Maybe it was even one of the deputies who watches this cage.

Whoever it was, he was pressing a hot iron into my soul.

Yes, I feel the need to keep in prayer. I’m stopping now and getting on my knees.
