"I can't think of a better place to reflect on the awesome love of our Lord Jesus than ... here at Lawtey Correctional. God bless you." - Gov. Jeb Bush, in a Christmas Eve address to inmates at the nation's first "faith-based" prison, in North Florida.Let us pray.
Yea, though we hustle through the valley of death, we offer thanks for the bounty of faith to be found here at the Lawtey Correctional Facility.
Lord, look down with mercy upon us for we have committed multiple felonies and misdemeanors that are grievous in your eyes, and also in the eyes of the judges and juries who sent us here.
Armed with lethal weapons we have entered liquor stores, pawn shops and late-night establishments of convenience, and from those premises we have taken cash, lottery tickets and merchandise. At no time, Lord, did we return to justly compensate the proprietors.
