As an update to my adventure in the Maverick County Jail. The saga begins at the bottom and reads forward as you scroll up. Confusing? Sorry. :)
I was finally invited by the court to meet the judge. God provided a lawyer through my "father-in-law" at a public defender price. The help will cost me a couple hundred dollars instead of thousands. God is the great provider. He continues to confirm He has a plan and it is not all about me, although it feels like it.
I have shared with my blog friends about my "Throw Down Bibles". While waiting for court to start, I met the guy you see in the picture. He went into court, came back out and sat next to me. I had a "Throw Down" copy of The Message sitting on top of some documents I needed. He asked what The Message was? It was funny. I thought he was talking about my cell phone and a text message.
He pointed to my Bible and I explained it was an easy to read version of the New Testament. I asked him what he was reading and he pulled a couple of books from beneath his robe. One was a physics book and another book with spiritual guidance I think. I'm not sure.
I had to enter the court room at that point, so I gave him my Bible as a gift. He was surprised and appreciative. I saw him again as I left the courtroom. He and I waved. He had a great smile. I'm hoping he will accept the FREE Gift found on P.198. via John 3:16 and possibly he will drop me note on this blog.
I know many of my friends were praying about my court appearance. Thank you! Continue to keep my family and I in your prayers as this chapter in our life winds down.... It has been quite the adventure, full of God Spots.
