Dismissed

Do I have some good news for you! Or, rather, good news for us that I am going to share with you... either way... it is some pretty stinkin' good news!

As of this morning, the Captain's case was dismissed!

You can sit down and stop dancing now... I have more....

It was dismissed with prejudice, which our lawyer said he has never seen in his15 years of practicing law...it means they can never refile the case!

Really, sit down, stop shouting for joy... I have more!

Even more extraordinary (words used by our lawyer) is that they are expunging his arrest record...which is even more rare then dismissal with prejudice! (again words from our lawyer)

This is such wonderful news! No more legal little black rain cloud over our heads! A cleared name for the Captain! We are thrilled, but not totally surprised....God was on our side, and it is all stuff we have been praying for, and we know He is faithful and we know He answers prayer... But still...WHOO-HOO!!!!!

OK, what are you waiting for... Jump up and dance, sing and shout for Joy!!! God is faithful... Let's praise Him today!

Matthew 17:20 ...I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."

I'm a lurker around here, but I just think this is/was the most remarkable story of God seeing His children through the valleys.
