On this very day in 1533, Anne Boleyn, a young Christian who got pregnant before she actually married Henry VIII, gave birth to baby Elizabeth, who would later become Elizabeth I, Queen of England. Not only was she, too, a Christian in the born again sense as her writings clearly indicate, but the PBS series starring Glenda Jackson is ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!! I've seen it nine times so far with Audio Visual Man.
In fact, if it wasn't Jonny Two Lips' (one of my three Elfsons) twenty-first birthday, I'd try to convince AVMan to start the series again tonight just to honor HRM who is now among the great cloud of witnesses spoken of in Hebrews 12:1, "Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance, and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
Actually, be encouraged by that verse and I don't need to say any more!
