What do I think, I'm thinking of the Christmas Eve service in 1972 when I was doing 25 years for Bank Robbery, sitting in prison, listening to a new born baby give a furtive cry and wonder who would bring a baby into prison. It was my first Christmas as a Christian but I had spent many a Christmas in prison. 6 months earlier a white haired lady in her 80's (a volunteer) had told me God had a plan for my life. And a prison school teacher had told me God could change my life. And this baby , representing Jesus in an unplanned way. Back then I didn't understand it at all, Today, I've been married to that school teacher for 30 years, and that baby...well that was Sara Colbaugh, shes married now and they call her Sara Groves.
