Gatesville Trip

So we got to visit Chelsea yesterday. We had a good time. It's weird, we sit and laugh about stuff and I think for a couple of hours Prison life can fade for Chelsea. We eat chips, candy bars and drink sodas and even though glass and wire seperate us she has 2 hours of interaction with people.

Yesterday she was pretty down when we got there because of her direct appeal deny. But we took her good news and she cheered up. We talked about the case a little, but mostly we talked about family and friends and what our plans are once she gets out. We spoke of how God is in control of our lives and we put that in his hands. Chelsea truely believes God will come through for her. I believe she is right. We serve a big God and He knows our past, present and our futures. He knows every breath we breathe and he loves us more than anyone else. He died for us, gave his life for us. Like Chelsea said yesterday, everything she has gone through is nothing compared to what Jesus Christ went through. Yet He did it for me and for you. Because He loved us so much he gave his life.

Chelsea has never been one to tell us do this or do that. She always just asks that we do everything prayerfully. We have there have been times she was a little leery of something and it has turned out to be something God has blessed. We set up the website and she was so concerned that it would cause us trouble with those involved against her. You know what? I'm not scared of men. I have a God that will keep me through hard times. He has done it before and he will do it again. So I continued with the website and begin to get responses through the site. Then that rolled into a blog and now we have a MySpace where people are able to connect as a support for Chelsea. It's not a quick thing and sometimes the slowness of it all drives me CRAZY!!! LOL. I want things to hurry along so Chelsea can be released. It's so wrong how innocent people can have this happen. Yesterday Chelsea talked about how unsure she was about someone having a website for her, she was afraid it wouldn't help but with our God He said I can use that and He did and we are very thankful.

Some are asking if anyone is doing anything for Chelsea for Christmas, that is being worked on and as soon as I hear I'll be posting about it.

If you are a praying person don't forget to continue to pray for Chelsea. She wants God to be the center of her world and any good that is done to be done in His name under His direction. You can't go wrong with my God!!!
