I think Ray is a strong person that has deeply meditated over what he is going to have to endure. No amount of preparation can make you one hundred percent ready or whole, but he has God and Jesus Christ on his side.
What chaffs my hide, is all the love, time, effort, compassion, kindness he gave and displayed to all the sheep, will be tossed out the window. Ray was a elder, he took the phone calls of distressed friends, worked a job and found time to give his whole people to people, who won't ask twice, just nod their head when the annoucement is made.
Ray, Jehovah and Jesus are not unrighteous to forget all the good you gave to your Kingdom Hall, and forgetful friends. It's going to be a hard road to traverse and as a godly man, you will win the race! God Bless You!
