THE PRIEST VOW : Episode 11 – The End

THE PRIEST VOW.

Episode 13.

By Amah’s Heart.

I needed time to pray over this prison visit.
I don’t know what to expect but I was at peace in my inner man to proceed.

I took off after two days, it was another long drive but I wasn’t worried and I also wanted Anna to feel free.

My calling is to serve mankind and I have followed every step of my duty diligently not because I was stronger than all or more spirit filled but because of the abundant grace God bestowed on me.

“Good day officer, my name is James White. I’m here to see a prisoner….his name is Gumi.
