“Easter is a very nice time, it reminds me of a time that I was In Mississippi visiting or was going to live there but I went on the wrong terms( not being with God and really not thinking about things that he needed me to do with my life or at least that I thought that he needed me to do) anyways I was thinking about going to Chicago Illinois after I am done with journey to go and try and work with the police department so I could honor God Jehovah, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy spirit, and the blessed Mother Mary and stay for a while and let God Jehovah try and set me up there out right or in hiding if it needed to be that way so I wouldn't be hurt like Jesus Christ when he was crucified. Goodbye and I love ya'll. Michael Ignacio Martinez your child in Miami Beach, Florida. Always and Forever yours. ”
