For those who have been praying for my situation. Please keep those prayers comming.
My situation is starting to change. I have a job at fast food. There is (thank God) no smoking. It does not pay enough for a home, but I can save some money living in my van and bathing at a health club. I have decided to stay in the van for several reasons. Chief is that any thoughts about getting a cheep room are followed by thoughts of attacking the man who put me in my situation with a ball bat, while thoughts of saving my money for a home and living in the van are followed by positive thoughts. My pregnant wife gets disability and may get housing assistance. I have long term plans for income that should bear fruit in a year or so. I work on these several hours a day.
Thanks in Christ

I have been having trouble with forgiveness since October of 2005. It is interfering with my spiritual and physical health. During the first two months all I thought about was evil toward this man who lied to me, attacked me with drugs, and fed me to his friends and family. He and his family had been planning a trap for about a year. He just needed a good victim/roommate. A litergy was done for the situation. The next day he resorted to gun crimes. His evil had something to do with the death of my priest and several ex-neighbors. The day Fr Michael died my briefcase with my laptop was stolen from the Greyhound bus I was on. That briefcase was my biggest personal loss as a result of my situation. The floppy disk with my data backed up has everything in the briefcase that can't be replaced. I find thoughts about that his 'evil' was meant to lead me to do Christ's will seem to help. This line of thought probably helped Christ when he was on the cross. I will manage to forgive but I doubt that I will forget. In Christ
