Pray for YM and Joy

Yesterday evening I received this email from YM:

"Dear friends and prayer partners,

Greetings to you all in the mighty name of Jesus.

First of all I would like to thank each one of you for specially praying for us during this one of the most difficult time of our Christian life.  As most of you know, we are facing a court trial in which we are falsely accused. But we thank God that He has counted me and my wife worthy of His suffering.

On 20th of Jan, I reached home early afternoon. That evening at 7.20 p.m. four cops came to our residence and they were carrying Non Billable Warrant for me and for my wife. Cops executed the warrant (my wife had a narrow escape on that day being arrested). I was taken and put behind the lock up. The whole night I spent on concrete floor with just one blanket. Lock up was literally a dungeon. I was taken to court on 21st Jan by 2.00 p.m. and then I was sent to district jail. I would share my jail experience only when I meet personally. On 22nd my first bail petition was rejected by lower court. My wife moved to session court for my bail and my bail there was rejected on 5th Feb. Then with the help of friends my wife and colleague  filed my bail petition in High Court. I was finally released on Feb 23rd.

At this point of time I would thank all the friends those who prayed for us and helped us. 

This incident has made us stronger in our faith and Christian walk. We have grown closer to God. In my days inside I found my friend Jesus always with me and my Bible was a great source of inspiration. I spent my time praying, reading Bible or sharing my faith to fellow prisoners. 

At the end of the letter I would request you to pray for my wife, Joy, whose bail petition will be filed in High Court soon. As there is possibilities that she may get bail without being put into prison. But God knows what is best for us.

Trusting God for His grace"

Please pray for this precious couple.
