Heavenly Father, we return to thank You for the hearts that are turned to You this day on behalf of this mother's child ... the hour approaches, Merciful Father, when yet another decision will be made to execute this wounded woman, or not. Again we ask for that one Judge who will render justice, not because he is righteous, but because he is weary from the continual appearing of a mother and father who will not relent ... who will not be silenced. Stir the people to add their voices, and their actions, to the cries of a loving family ... turn their pleas into a mighty chorus that seeks to halt the march of the Merchants of Death ... do not let them place their deadly hands upon the door to Terri's room. Let them not gain entrance, O God ... pierce their hearts with understanding of what they plan, and may they repent. If they do not repent, may they relent ... send them away in shame that they would dare stand in Your place, for it is Your hand that holds the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:10.
This day, Heavenly Father, work in the hearts of those in authority over us ... cause them to be mindful that their authority is a trust from God ... may they use this trust wisely and well. Grant wisdom to those seeking to rework words that will protect this innocent woman, and all those who would become prey to the Merchants of Death. Expose their evil plans and deeds ... let the people recoil at the horror that is upon us ... stay this hand of evil, O God, let not this innocent woman perish. In the Name of Jesus, may it be thus ... may it be thus ... Amen ...
BREAKING!!! Can I get confirmation? I called Senate Orrin Hatch's aide this morning in DC and he told me that this morning, Terri was given an additional one week's STAY. (why does Orrin Hatch's office know something that nobody else knows?) My www.sptimes.com had a headline that read "Humbled lawmakers say court is final Judge" Metro & State Section.
It would be nice if someone would tell Floridians what was going on. THE QUOTE BY DANIEL WEBSTER made me sick. "The Court has come up with much better solutions than we have so far." Daniel Webster who we thought was for justice.
FL Engineer, Thank you for the Ping! His Homily was Wonderful!
Amen and Amen to your Powerful Prayer, sister Pegita!
