See this moving story of a man convicted of murder, jailed for 19 years, almost granted the death penalty, now set free after DNA evidence proved his innocence. The picture of his face, soaked in tears says it all. For full article, see link here.
As he left the courthouse, Mr. Halsey said, “I thank my Lord and savior Jesus for keeping me.”
Amazing story.
Thanks to Innocence Project whose lawyers played a pivotal role in setting the record straight.

Zephaniah
Today's biblegateway verse of the day:
The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.
Zephaniah 3:17

My prayer
Dear Lord,
I thank you for clearing away the cobwebs and taking away the dross, for leading me out of darkness into your light, for showing me that the reality that was, is nothing compared to the reality that is to come. I thank you for answering my prayers in amazing and providential ways. You have provided more than enough for me, in every way. I trust you with my whole heart.
I want, so much, for you to be the center of my life, Lord. I want so much, for my heart to cleave to yours. I know that through all the trials and difficulties you have placed in my path, all have been set there to humble me and allow me to be refined as by fire; to see how weak and desperate I am without you. To see how fallen and sinful I am without your amazing grace.
Thank you for the cross. Thank you for dying for me and giving your life for me. Help me never to turn my back to you. Please do not take your Holy Spirit away from me. Show me your way and guide me to life everlasting.
This I pray, in Jesus name.
Amen.

Difficult words to chew on
2 Corinthians 6:14-16
Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness? What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil? How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? And what union can there be between God’s temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God...

Joy
...in the form of my nephew. My sister just sent this photo and I want to be able to easily access his smile wherever I am...he is so lovable; and I love him, indeed, very much.
