Tonight at my women's Bible Study, I asked for prayer for Terri. One woman stiffened up and when I was explaining Terri's situation to those that did not know, this one gal told me that I don't have all the facts, that Terri is in a PVS state. I told her that all you had to do was look at the video being shown and see that she looks at her mother with recognition and love. She obviously watched CNN the other night and told me that it took up to 4 hours to get that shot. I was sad leaving that room.

I thank God that he protected Terri's organs during those days that she was off her feeding tube and I pray that he will keep her safe from those who think she should die.

Take heart. You spoke up for Terri! Maybe those who sided with Michael's CNN version won't be swayed, but you never know. God is putting Terri onto all our hearts, and he's watching how we behave. He knows the real scoop. Perhaps you are just the first in a series of events (well, second if you count CNN) where God will show those women how precious Terri's life is to Him. You did the right thing. It is sad, but we are fighting an uphill battle against an enemy who gained ground while we were sleeping. Now that we are awake, let us continue to call out to others about the peril that seems to be surrounding us. God is mightier than any evil. I believe that if we believe, God will vindicate Terri.

This woman in the Bible study group must be a fraud, for she has a heart of stone, doesn't she? She does not want to be disproved in her prejudgment. Is she a woman of excessive pride, which the Bible says "goeth before destruction"? Imagine someone in a Bible study group not wanting to pray for the most vulnerable in society. Was she a Clintoid, or do you know her "politics"?

Even if she would be in a PVS, this does not preclude her from prayer! This woman could certainly join in prayer for wisdom and right judgment in this situation, and for Terri's spiritual well-being. Even in PVS, Terri's spirit lives on. Certainly Terri's family is in need of prayer support at this time. I also think the woman who "stiffened up" is in need of prayer as well, that she have an open mind and heart towards the needs of others. It will take continued courage for you to bring the needs of Terri, her family, and the disabled, to the attention of your Bible study for on-going prayer. Thank you for posting this.
