This is a place where we will continue the forgiveness that Raye started in the courtroom of her trial. She publicly forgave those that contributed to her wrongful conviction. There are those that continue to create hardships for her innocence, but we will follow her example and rise above their hate. As Christ surely forgave us, we can only strive to be like Him. Please share a prayer or a positive thought to those that encourage this hate campaign. Let it soften hearts and heal the hurt.
The old will become new. We will work on the change and fold the old coats away... Our God will put our enemies aside so that we may move forward with the change that is needed. Stand up! Take hold of the changes at hand!
Hebrews 1:1-13
10-12And again to the Son, You, Master, started it all, laid earth's foundations, then crafted the stars in the sky. Earth and sky will wear out, but not you; they become threadbare like an old coat; You'll fold them up like a worn-out cloak, and lay them away on the shelf. But you'll stay the same, year after year; you'll never fade, you'll never wear out. 13And did he ever say anything like this to an angel? Sit alongside me here on my throne Until I make your enemies a stool for your feet.
Since I'm not attending my church right now on Sunday mornings, I have been reading positive, spiritual books and also watching either Joyce Meyer or Joel Osteen on tv. Why am I not attending my local church? Well, I have my 'church' with Raye on Sunday mornings because that is the ONLY visitation time our District Attorney and the 'system' set up for us. I was watching Joyce Meyer this evening, and this verse she read and shared just jumped out to me!
Isaiah 61:7
7 Instead of being put to shame my people will receive a double share of wealth. Instead of being dishonored they will be glad to be in their land. They will receive a double share of riches there. And they'll be filled with joy that will last forever.
Our God is telling us that our rewards will be not only in heaven, but HERE, NOW! In our land! What a blessing! We are His children and He WILL take care of us. Our faith is strong.....He will never fail us.

Mark 12:36(New International Version)
36 David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared: "The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet."
Raye shared this verse Monday, Memorial Day with me. So fitting.... Her faith is strong...
