A wealthy woman lived there, and she urged him to come to her home for a meal. After that, whenever he passed that way, he would stop there for something to eat.

Tides were turning against him now and he is being asked to renounce his stand and he will live. Unknowingly, Archbishop Cranmer is being lied about his freedom if he renounces his faith and teachings.  As we finish up the story of Thomas Cranmer, let us remember that we are mere humans, falling short at every turn. We too, will someday have to make a confession of our faith. What will you do when asked to renounce your faith or die?  I honestly don't know if I have the courage to stand.

Thank you Lord for your Spirit that becomes Hope to my weary heart  in times of chaos and violence in our world. Thank you Lord for your Spirit that teaches me those things that are good, true, simple and pure which have become the  foundation  that changed my life.

It is Your Spirit that surrounds my heart and  my mind.  It is Your Spirit that keeps my Faith from faltering. Thank you Lord for your Spirit   which has become my Truth, for I now know what is evil, although  everyone around me is teaching that the evil they do, they now call good.  How contrary and confusing all their fool
