DON’T TELL GOD YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM. TELL YOUR PROBLEM YOU HAVE A BIG GOD. 🙏❤️
And then HAND IT OVER.
That last part is mostly a reminder to myself, because the Lord and I have been having some LONG conversations lately. Pretty sure He’s reminding me that orange is NOT my color. 😂
But let me be clear…
Thursday, October 8, our business, Meant ✌️ Be Nutrition in Broken Bow, was broken into MULTIPLE times between midnight and 4:30 AM. Starting with ONE and ending with more than ONE. Stealing, damaging property, and taking things that hardworking people have sacrificed to build. ALL WHILE CRACKED OUT with their nasty little fingers all over the place just METHED UP.
Tommy Stockton and Jacob Helms were arrested in connection with the break-in. YES yall all know them and YES they have hit up almost every business and person I’ve talked to…. sadly.
YES, we have surveillance footage. YES, stolen property has been recovered. YES, law enforcement has evidence. And YES, their public past criminal records are available for anyone who wants to do their own research.
Repeat offenders over and over and over who are CLEARLY -NEVER .GOING. TO. CHANGE.
And YESSS… I’m also aware they were released Tuesday, October 13. 🙃 no bail bond or judge seen- and are back on the streets or should I say TREES 🤔
Now THAT’S where my patience and my blood pressure part ways.
We get to replace what’s stolen, repair what’s damaged, lose business, lose sleep and worry about whether they’ll come back.
And the people arrested in connection with it? Back out.free.
MAKE. THAT. MAKE SENSE.
I’ve heard information from law enforcement about the investigation, and believe me, there is plenty more I could say. But some things are better saved for the courtroom. WHEN/IF we get there. DEF. SOME ISSUES THERE. 🤷♀️
And before anyone tells me to just let it go… NO MA’AM. NO SIR.
I can forgive. I can pray. I can trust God.
But forgiveness does NOT erase accountability.
You didn’t work for it. You didn’t build it. You didn’t earn it. And you had NO RIGHT to take it.
I don’t want revenge. I WANT JUSTICE.
I WANT PEACE FOR MY EMPLOYEES AND MYSELF. FOR THE COMMUNITY AND EVERY OTHER BUSINESS OUT THERE. THEY GET TO DO THESE THINGS AND SAY “I was so messed up I’m sorry” ever. Single. Time. CRYING LIKE A BABY AND SNITCHING JUST TO REPEAT IT ALL OVER AGAIN. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!
I will continue asking questions, following this case, and pursuing every legal avenue available until we are in court.
To those responsible, I pray you find a better path. But I also pray you’re held accountable for the one you’ve chosen.
God sees what happens in the dark. And apparently, so do security cameras. 📹😉
To everyone who’s supported us, prayed for us, and checked on us, THANK YOU. ❤️ FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED us with damages, security, names, locations, yall know who you are …. Im forever grateful. 😢
I’m handing it over to GOD, but I’m not giving up.
And one thing is certain…
The enemy may have interrupted our Thursday last week, but he doesn’t get to write the ending to our story. 🙏✌️WE ARE STILL STANDING AND WILL CONTINUE TO. (Especially now with chads new hip-haha)
Now let’s have a THRIVING THURSDAY friends. Come see us. We’re here till 4 and remember we are closing at noon tomorrow. Don’t forget your tea kit 😉
Ta ta for now ✌️
LOVE ASHLEY !!!!
