* * ~ * * Frustration!! * * ~ * *
As I continued to read through acts 24, 25, and 26 poor Paul was held in prison 2 years and brought periodically before counsels after counsels before finally being brought before the king. Hind sight being twenty twenty I wish I had read these verses at a time in my life when the situation wasn't to far from what Paul was going through. And ours lasted two years, if not a bit longer. My son had been accused of an awful crime he was innocent of. Being low income as we were, we had to rely on court appointed attorney. Mostly the man didn't wish to be bothered. He didn't believe in my sons innocents. There was one investigator who believed in my son 100% and he was fired because he refused to play their games. The end result was I had to do all the work my self. In the end the charges were dropped. Yet my sons name remains on a list somewhere, for some reason this organization is about the law of the courts. The frustration and helplessness, anger. I can only imagine Pauls feelings while going through this. Though he may have been a much calmer person then me. A mother trying to protect her child is not what you would call calm, friendly, or even nice. Paul was a diplomat it seems, speaking came naturally to him. You know the more I have studied the bible the more I have found that there is something in it for almost every situation and if there isn't something for a situation it's only cause I have missed it, or don't remember it. But it's there. It is amazing what God provided for us in this one book, and how many times you read it, depending on your life at that time it can all take on new meaning for you. The Bible even told me how to handle being a believing wife, with a non-believing husband. People speak about how a 2000 year old book could have any meaning today, that it's archaic, out of date etc.... All I can say to those who say that, is they haven't read it. They haven't tried to apply it with an open heart. You have a problem.... Take a look in our bible, chances are someone had the same problem long before you did.
