Please Pray

Hello Everyone,

I actually have a few posts from Randi & the ladies – and will get to that tonight and tomorrow! But I wanted to solicit your prayer this week.

My parents will be traveling from FL to Dallas to visit for the holidays. The jail does not offer weekend visits but that is when my parents will be traveling through Baton Rouge. Randi hasn’t seen any family since we were there when she was first indicted. That makes me cry just thinking about it. Anyhow – I think that it would be so good for to see my parents. And good for us too.

My mom tried contacting the jail to get special permission, and from what I understand, that didn’t work. So, Randi has written a letter to someone asking for special arrangements to be made.

Thanks again for all of your love and support!

Letter from Randi

Oh, I am so homesick!

I am tired of being in jail.

Today is my best friend’s birthday – Happy Birthday Mo…I wish I was there to celebrate with you!

I found out that my really good friend Krissy is having a baby! Oh, how I wish I could be there to help her with that too! And Shauna has a birthday coming (I SURE DO, PEOPLE!). My dad’s birthday just passed. My cousin got married. My 7 year old niece is wearing my shoes to church! :)

And I am missing it all! Life doesn’t stop for anyone else just because it stopped for me!

But this “break” from life has been a blessing – that’s for sure. And although it could be a lengthy break…I know this is what I need.

I got a letter from my best friend from Jr. High. He reminded me about when we led a Bible study at school in the mornings. And about when we went to “See you at the Pole.” He told me that instead of seeing this time as punishment, I should see myself as a missionary.

Thank you, God, for this statement!

When I look at it this way – I don’t get afraid of how much time I am looking at. I don’t worry about a court date. And I am okay with missing birthdays and stuff because I know that bringing people to Jesus is causing a way huge celebration!

Love,

Randi

Questions for Randi

Hello there!

I haven’t heard from Randi in a little while. I haven’t talked to her in about a month and the letters have slowed down a little. That is bound to happen, I guess. I was thinking yesterday that I bet it is hard for her and the other ladies to think up topics to write about for this website.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Satan was planting little seeds of doubt in Randi that her letters don’t matter – or the topic is stupid…Things like that. You know he still wants to get to her one way or another!

I thought it would be fun to compile a list of questions for Randi and the other ladies incarcerated at WBCC. You can submit any question or topic…Of course, they have the liberty to answer them or not!

I would also like to hear from you if this website has touched you and how you got here. I want to make sure that Randi is well-aware of how God is using her outside of that prison.

Thanks so much!

Shauna
