This is, without doubt, the strangest post I’ve ever written. In two and a half years of blogging, this is the only time I’ve ever tried to write a post that didn’t say anything. But in this often twisted world, such is the spot in which I find myself. You see...
Big Brother is watching.
I can post no details; a note such as this would be used against them. I can post no names; they are not permitted to have their story told either in public or in court. No attorneys will take their case as justice is apparently only for the rich (and while this family seems to have a great deal of wealth, it is not in a financial sense). No charges have been filed, but still they are not free. In short, this is exactly the kind of case that should not happen in America.
There is a family out west that is under assault from Big Brother. There seems to have been a misunderstanding, a statement overheard by someone, that was eventually reported to authorities. They have many children, and have provided a stable and loving home for the 20+ years they’ve been married. But because of the misunderstanding, Big Brother has taken their children from them.
This family is in urgent need of our prayers. I am not going to write a specific prayer this time for fear of giving away too much information. Suffice to say that they need the truth to be told and an attorney willing to defend them vigorously. The specific words I will leave to the individuals that are willing to offer up their prayers. Invoking St. Jude would be appropriate.
To the family in the midst of this nightmare I say this: God does not give us trials that we cannot endure. You’ve proven already that you are far stronger than you ever imagined possible before this began. Where does this strength come from? Though you may not, at times, be able to see it, it is clear to those of us on the outside that the strength of Christ is in you. Big Brother can do nothing against you so long as you lean on that strength. “Come to me, all you that labor, and are burdened, and I will refresh you." (Mt. 11:28) Illigitimati non carborundum!
And to the minions of Big Brother: “...for Satan himself transformeth himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers be transformed as ministers of justice, whose end shall be according to their works." (2 Corinthians 11:14-15)
To other bloggers reading this, I have to ask that you not link directly to this post. Big Brother is literally watching; they have been trolling the internet and if you’ve ever written about this they know your URL. And if you haven’t written on it, then keep in mind that the more links to this post the more likely it is to be picked up by Google. The only reason I’m brazen enough to post this is the fact that this blog didn’t exist when the story broke originally. Link the blog and tell people to scroll down until they find a prayer request. And if any of the family or friends of these people are reading these words, please do not leave comments…clever IT professionals can get information that you don’t want them to have.
I am in contact with this family. This is truly the worst scenario of power gone wrong that one can imagine.
During a similar time in Arkansas's history, attorneys were afraid to take these cases if THEY had children. No one way safe and the family services people had no problem being threatening the lawyers. My guess is the same thing is going on here. Also, the family has no money to fight this. Because of the gag order, the web site to help collect money had to be discontinued. They are probably looking at close to 50K right now and if another type of attorney must be added, that will increase exponetially.
The senators of her State are not responding to her letters. Nor is the State's Attorney General. Prayers are keeping the family going.
