I've put out previous requests, Praise God part of that has been answered. My Keith is out of gaol (for now) on bail. The supreme Court Judge would not grant bail if Keith was to come home. the neighbours lies and witch hunt style ways to rid of us without reason - no one has the right to treat another person like they do. Whats worse is they say they are christians and go to church religiously every Sunday - they tell the court lies even saying I've called them christian bastards - The Lord knows I am telling the truth and He knows our hearts, yet the worldly police and judges believe them. They have won as far as removing us is concerned, I just have to find $330 for each real estate agent to put house on market. We may have to rent out our home to pay the mortgage as Keith is paying rent on a cabin in a caravan park. We may have to look at renting ourselves until our house sells. I feel for not only Keith who this is being done to, but two of our kids, Bianca 12, and Ty 16, Bianca just started High School, and Ty is in Year 10 - and needs to at least complete this year and get his year 10 certificate otherwise it will be hard to get work. Ty has a strain of asperges syndrome and the school and job centre have been marvelous and I believe ty just got some part time work at Woolworths Supermarket - I'd like him to at least start and do it for a few weeks while we work out what to do and how, so he can get a reference (he's already worked there 2 months work experience through school) and hopefully transfer as there are Woollies supermarkets absolutely everywhere here. I am also worried they may jail Keith eventually, as we will not get justice in this town - i'm sure they are paid off (one of the neighbours has a cop as a relative) I know Keith is innocent, I was accused of same thing last july and aquitted in January - but the magistrate doesn't like Keith and believes everything the neighbours say. Keith was accused of calling our neighbour a paedophile in court last year, no one heard this but the neighbour. We called the police prosecutor who was next to our neighbour when this was supposed to be said, he said he heard nothing, neither did any of the solicitors at the bar that day, no one heard anything, yet the magistrate chose to believe the neighbour - I just want to live our lives in peace unto ourselves and to God, I only have gone off only using my words when wrong is done to my people and me. I can not believe this is taking place in this day and age and in our so called free country. I have seen with my own two eyes all the people in court these days for AVO's (aggravated violence order) placed on them due to disagreements with another person and they do so lie. I quite often ask our Lord to take me home when I feel I can not take anymore. He says not yet, I have to stay I have my people to look after and somehow through all this show that I am Christlike and to be Christlike. It can be very challenging and I haven't always been an angel I have reacted the wrong way screaming at police, neighbours and even the magistrate that God will take their breath one day and they WILL answer to God whether they believe or not. One copper laughs at me and trys to provoke me then they lie in their statements then the magistrate only believes them. I've been so angry at them all and beside myself. However, last 4 months I have learnt not to go off and that I am only feeding them fuel for the fire. I feel quite anxious most of the time. I pick up cigarettes and a drink here and there - I don't want to - I know I'm trying to drown out the terrible depression, anger and anxiety I am suffering I know that is not of God. You brothers and sisters on prayabout have helped me so much, even by looking at your own prayer requests - I become overwhelmed with saddness that so many are hurting I want you all healed and prayers answered. Instead we can prayer for one another and that ok with me because I know I have real family in the spiritual sense. I pray that the Lord leads us to where He wants us to be and to open those doors, and for the one's that are doing wrong and harm to us, I pray the Lord handle them and I pray for them. Forgive me as I forgive those who tresspass against me. Thank you Lord that you chose me help me to be the servant you intended me to be. In Jesus Name. Amen
It appears that the police will make it extremely hard for Keith to reside at his own home with us, however, we are putting in a bail variation request and that will take 3 weeks to get to court. Our car is now causing problems, probably something to do with the extra 900 kilometres a week it must do now and the dirt road that is now traveled twice a day. We don't have the money to get all these things fixed on it and now its flying through petrol (it was working fine until 2 weeks ago) I am so tired and worn out. I made enquiries about a larger cabin to rent at this caravan park and looking at changing the kids school, not good when they are teenagers in high school and Ty just got that job. I think there is more for the kids to do here though - I need to get direction and an answer if this is the way to go. There is no problems with the neighbours here at all, in fact christians (an elderly couple) live next door and said the school up the road is a christian school (if its private we can't aford it) and everyone here seems to know where the boundaries are - short conversations and everyone is polite. We still need to sell our home and get a real house to live in but for now its ok. Perhaps the Lord wants us here for the present time. Thanks very much to you all for your kind prayers and taking the time to read my prayer request and others - especially when so many of you all have terrible situations of your own I'll keep you in my prayers too.
First of all I would like to thank all of my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus for all your loving prayers and thoughts. They really are much appreciated. We still need your prayers. We went to court for some of the allegations on the 11 June. So most of the stuff is sorted out. Funny how we where told the prosecution wanted to gaol Keith etc. He ended up with approx $1500 worth of fines and only 2 charges completely dropped. Keith agreed to some of the charges in a plea bargain only so he can come and live at home. After he did this the prosecution stalled with their end of the bargain. Now we have a new date just to have bail conditions changed. Now we risk the prosection saying no and going back on their word. The new date is the 8 July. We really need to be allowed to go home. The kids hate it at new school, my son who has a strain of asperges syndrome is not coping and it is his last year of high school for his school certificate. I am afraid he will not pass especially because of the move. Neighbours have been going onto our property back at home. Found water at front hose turned on so now we have a water bill as large as the last one when we were living there. Great when we are in a terrible drought. My pumpkins have been stolen. I reported this to the police as usual nothing is done about it when things are done to us. Neighbours also put photos they had taken of me and my daughter in my letterbox. Still the police just record that and do nothing. We can't handle the extra financial pressure I have borrowed $1500 so far just to get by. Our car is requiring mechanical work done. Being allowed to reside back at our own home will relieve us of $180 per week. I pray our Father will make our path straight and the enemy can not hinder us anymore.

I will keep you and the family in my prayers. When you are overwhelmed and at wits end give it up to Mary. Mary, mother of God, we offer all our sufferings and tribulations and ask for help and guidance. Lord, take charge of this matter and your will be done. We ask this thru your loving heart.
