I would like to request prayer for my father, Wayne Morrell.
I spoke with him on the phone for the first time in 18 years. A friend of mine back home was arrested and brought to the hospital (that's another story) and was put in a room with a man that looked like me, and walked like me. He asked him if he had a son named Jesse to which the man said yes and even knew my Mothers name.
My friend saw him again a few days later and they started talking about me, and my friend called me up on the phone and I was able to speak with my father for the first time in 18 years.
I have never been angry with my father or held any bitterness towards him at all for anything, I've had nothing but love and an overwhelming desire my whole life to know him. I hope to speak with him again sometime soon, and eventually met him.
I also found out about my brother, Justin, is now 27 working as a cook. I had not seen Justin since I was a small child. And also found out that I have a 12 year old brother, Ryan, and a very young sister as well. I hope to be able to met them all soon.
Please pray for their salvations. My father is a heavy alcoholic. And unfortinately has no where to live right now except a tent in the woods. But I also know the debth of sin and also the power of God unto salvation. Pray that he be delivered from the bondage of sin and brought into the liberty and freedom that is in Christ. And please pray for my 2 bothers and sister as well, that I will get to met them and be able to witness to them; that they might be saved
