Again, O Lord, we are before the Throne of Grace on her behalf. Again, O Lord, we pray for that one judge who will look with compassion upon this beloved daughter and sister, and who will look deep within the law, that Terri be afforded every protection. She is behind closed doors, while her husband is free to love another and to hold close his children. She is deprived of color, while those who seek to end her life go about in the finest of clothes and in the nicest ways. She is deprived of her loved ones, yet everyone else can freely fellowship with family.
We are a hurting people for this dear child, Heavenly Father, yet we know that she has been sustained because of Your grace and mercy, because of Your abundant love for this afflicted one. Were it not for You, she would have perished. Continue to be her portion unto the day of her release, that she may yet rejoice many days with her family ... in the Name of Jesus, I pray, Amen ...
Dear Pegita, as always your prayers calm our churning emotions and remind us that Terri is protected by His mercy, despite the suffering the laws of men have inflicted on her loved ones. Though the men who hold her life in their hands increase our anguish, we are secure in our faith that He hears our prayers and in due time His wisdom will expose the follies of those who do not respect or understand their precious duty to apply the law fairly and without prejudice, to the weakest as well as the strong. May He grant them the vision they lack, in matters of the spirit as well as the law.
