Yes, I would want live as that woman has, as oppose to dying of dehydration.

Of course, I'd much rather live with parents who were trying to actually rehabilitate me, as opposed to being forbidden visitors while caged in a hospice while my spouse tried to kill me.

To: All
Heavenly Father, we bow before You acknowledging that You are God. We acknowledge the truth of Your Word: "In Your hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind." Thank You that You are the Author of life ~ thank You that You, alone, know the number of our days.

Father, life for Terri seems to be coming to an end, by decree of man. Woe to us, O Lord, if the unjust are allowed to rule over the just. But as we come up against a ruling that allows the removal of daily bread from one less fortunate than another, we see the folly and foolishness of our ways. Forgive us, Lord, for we have been remiss ~ we seek Your wisdom, for we know not yet how to remedy the situation.

Do not lay our neglect at the bedside of a dying, harmless, helpless woman. Overrule, Heavenly Father, that she might live. In the vastness of this country, surely there is one in authority who will stand for her; in the midst of our judicial system, surely there are those with authority to restore this dear child. And if there is not, Lord ... then we are to be most pitied, for we have failed the least of these, our brethren.

You are the God of the Universe, interested in the affairs of men ~ I pray that men and women of courage will rise up to correct the wrongs that we have done ~ take not Your hand from our beloved country ~ take not Your hand of protection from this mother's child, but save her, not for merit of our own, but for the sake of Jesus, I pray ... Amen
