Chapter 78
Anne woke up early Monday morning. She had to make breakfast for her teens. Anne usually tried to read her Bible first thing in the morning, to give God her full attention when she was refreshed. But with her duties at the shelter that wasn't always possible. Things weren't easy for Anne at the moment. As a born again Christian some fools thought her in the same league as Caleb and those lunatics who blew up the gas distribution center. Not so long ago people were blaming the occult, now they were angry at evangelical Christians. Anne remembered her early life, the physical abuse she suffered was o bad she ran away at 13. Living on the streets, Anne did what she had to do to survive. Being a whore and a thief, she felt trapped in sin and despair. Then, she found Christ, gave her life over to him. And Christ gave Anne the strength to turn her life around. And now, Anne ran this homeless shelter for teenagers and children. Some had committed crimes, but who was she to judge? Others had been kicked out of their homes for being gay or pregnant. Despite all that Anne did God forgave her, even led her to her husband Ricky. Anne felt she could never repay God. But until he called her home she would run this shelter and help those that she could, giving them a safe place to stay and hopefully leading them to salvation.
