Terrie Schiavo's own actions will stand as a witness, an uncontestable witness, to her will to live. Who amonsgt us believs we could last eight or more days without water or nourishment? Very few indeed, even in the best of health.
I say, to all of those wo indicate she is vegetative, past feeling or emotion...look at her will to live! I challenege any of those people, any of them, to do what she has done. I challeneg any of them to apply the golden rule to her...to have done unto themselves what they are doing to her.
Her witness, will stand against all those seeking to kill her, and will haunt forever those who had the power to save her but did not. I urge all to consider her fight and her unbelievable will to live. It in itself is becoming a miracle as she continues to live, despite all odds to the contrary.
God bless her, God bless her family...and may God yet touch the heart of someone in power who can save her and preserve this remarkable witness as a miracle of out time...one where she defies the experts and survivies and is rehabilitated beyond understanding.
...and if not...then God bless her soul in Heaven, God comfort those who truly love her and have showed it by their actions...and God forgive our nation and what we have done to her collectively as a people.
"We hold these truths to be self evident; that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are LIFE!"
Those words ignited the formation of this nation, one nation under God. They trump any legislative act or judicial decision just as surely as the trumped the King of England.
I didn't know, knarf. I can't imagine how difficult it is for you to see this. God bless you.
I can only thank Christ Jesus that He ever lives to make intercession for us, as I hardly know what to pray anymore in this situation.
Thanx all, I pray so continually for Terri.
I guess we did not realise how easy we did have it back then my friend. I feel now I have been sold a bill of goods that will never ever be the same.
I met Jeff at Klamath Falls
And many other FReepers
Maybe it's not drama. Maybe it is a miracle. What if she survives, by the hand of G-d through Passover? Would anyone then have the temerity to deny His existence?
Many centuries ago He made a simple oil lamp to last for eight days without oil. Perhaps he has decided to let Terri's light burn as brightly for all to see. Now that national attention is focused on her, wouldn't it be a miracle for His divine intervention to bring millions of people to Him through Terri? What would the headlines be on the NY Times on that day I wonder?
The Government keeping water away from the farmers and now we are keeping water away from a human being.........Ironic isn't it?
But to many if someone tells them "God" is on this side then they have a knee jerk reaction against what ever side they hear "God" is on
People use the term "Bible thumper" the same as "Nazi" in any debate to try to trump others
Well said, Jeff. BTTT for Terri!!!!
I had hoped that the same would occur here...sadly, though significant outrage has produced some results, it has not to this point made the difference. But I still hold out hope...so long as Terri breathes we can still hope and at this point, every breath is a miracle in and of itself.
My book on Klamath will be coming out in a few months now that I have finished the Dragon's Fury Series.
Terri is a remarkable individual and her will to live is testimony enough IMHO, before God and man.
Thank you...and another BTTT for Terri!
I've wondered the exact same thing.
That's the best news I've heard all day.
Thanks, I wish it was out now. The effort and principles we used there could have helped with Terri I am sure...in fact, I believe they are.
...if the Bible should happen to say "yea"(the sky is blue today) the U.S. Constitution must by law say "nay"(the sky is not and can not be blue today)
Your two cents are worth a small fortune. Glad to see you are doing better.
