I just saw this update over at TNFarmGirl.
There will be a hearing this Wednesday (TOMORROW!) at 2:30 Kansas time…please uplift her family during this time. She and at least one of her children will most likely be speaking and she desires her words to flow from the Father to the courtroom - and that Jesus be glorified. I would imagine that this would be a time that the enemy would strike with fear and an attempt to intimidate…let us be praying for strength and peace as she faces the people in the courtroom and especially for her children. Remember to pray for protection, wisdom and guidance for them both.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Someone had written after the last update asking about the whole KSMilkmaid story. And to be honest, I just don't really feel comfortable trying to retell it. Christina does such a wonderful way of glorifying God in telling about what they are going through, but she has been asked to take down her blog while this is going through the court process so I can't even direct you there to read her story.
Jul. 1, 2007 - Thanks for the update.
I forgot to thank you for the update. I've been trying to stay updated as this story in particular tugged at my heart. I've been there, done that but in a different way. See, I dated a man who couldn't control his anger and frequently was the receiving end of this. Fortunately I never married but unfortunately after being forced to have "relations", I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. I'm lucky, I got out before permant damage could be done. I never reported the violation and abuse as I was threatened with my life and was petrified. It took this army sergant hauling me out to a homeless shelter and putting me on a bus home to save me and open my eyes. He of course denied paternaty and ran. The authorities found him in a county jail, did the test, proved him the father, and the rest is history. I never received a dime nor pressed the issue. He chose not to be in his daughter's life and I was greatful. There is so much more to the story but you get the idea. The last 18 years has been a healing experience. I've given it to God, had many conversations with my pastor who is also a wonderful friend and has helped me work thru the pain and embarrassment. My prayers are with Chris and her childeren. May she soon know peace and feel safe.
