"To God be the glory,
Great things he has done.
So loved he the world that
He gave us his Son.
Who yielded his life
An atonement for sin,
and opened the Life gate
That all may go in."
"Praise the Lord,
Praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear his voice.
Praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
Oh come to the Father
Through Jesus the Son,
And give him the glory,
Great things he has done!"
Amen
Yeah, in the St. Pete Times article today .. William Levisque quotes Greer as joking that he has been asked to recuse himself four times and that he made the mistake of not recusing himself for the same total of 4 times.
Words that bring so much comfort.
For Mary Schindler ...
How sweet to hold a newborn baby, and feel the pride and joy she gives, but greater still, the calm assurance, this child can face uncertain days because He lives ...
One would think this would carry significant weight in getting Terri tested. She needs protective custody in the meantime.
To God be the Glory, AND your prayers are best! :o) Goodnight.
Sometimes spell checker doesn't even help. Read the following, provided by the courtesy of Bykr Bayb on another thread:
MY SPELL CHECKER
I halve a spell checker
It came with my pea sea
It plane lee marks four my revue
Miss steaks aye can knot sea
Eye ran this poem threw it
Your sure real glad two no
Its very polished in its own weigh
My chequer tolled me sew
A cheek or is a blessing
It freeze yew lodes of thyme
It helps me right awl stiles two reed
And aides me when aye rime
Now spilling does knot phase me
It does knot bring a tier
My pay purrs awl due glad den
With wrapped words fare as hear
To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should be proud
And wee mussed dew the best wee can
Sew flaws are knot aloud
So ewe can sea why aye dew prays
Such soft wear four pea seas
And why eye brake in two averse
Buy righting want to please

I lurked on FR for several years before I ever posted. I didn't think I'd be able to stand up under the scrutiny of the other posters. I had no idea how they made all the fabulous links and nice graphics. (I still have a lot to learn in that regard). So I was pretty timid about jumping in.
When I first lurked some Terri threads, and then followed the links to terrisfight.org, I was stunned! I thought that there had to be something wrong, because I didn't think our courts would ever do anything this far off base. I made my first comments on a Terri thread. She has not been far from my heart since. I learned everything I could about her and the case. I looked from a lot of different angles, too. I read all the sites that Hildy and others have put up to back up their viewpoints, but those other sites are always missing something very important. It's different for each one of them.
At any rate, I wholeheartedly believe that Terri was brought to my attention because God wanted me to do something with this. I know I can only help a little, but it's like what Mother Teresa said, "You can only do what you can do, and I can only do what I can do, but together we can do a wonderful thing." (or something to that effect).
Lately I have been posting almost exclusively on the Terri threads because there's so much info since the Supreme Court didn't take the case. I'm lucky to read other threads at all, much less take the time to post on them. But I don't mind. My family knows that I'm doing something that I think is every bit as important as staying home and raising my children was when they were younger. God gives us opportunities to work for his Glory every day. I try to take Him up on that as frequently as I can. (Of course, some days are better than others. LOL)
Pegita, and Kitty mittens(is that right?), are so gifted in prayer. You both bless me so and others too.Isn't it wonderful to be able to come together, while we are all in different parts of the country, and join in prayer!!
I think a FReeper just got thru to Drudge to talk about Terri...
I wondered if it was a freeper.
Did you catch what her website is? I thought it sounded like straightupwithTerri, but I couldn't find that under .org or .com. I guess I misunderstood.
Was it maybe this? I didn't hear it, but your last post sounded like this one that I have a link for.

Did she say she was a FReeper? I know a couple of Sherri's that post from time to time.
hey there
yes it was me on Drudge
HE CUT ME OFF!!!
I wanted to talk about TERRI!!!
dang!!!
I AM SOO MAD!!!
"Was it maybe this? I didn't hear it, but your last post sounded like this one that I have a link for.

It could be. She said she had a blog, and Drudge graciously said that it wasn't a blog, it was a website.
Drudge also said (wrongly) that there is too much coverage spent on Terri, just as there was on Laci Peterson. I don't think that Drudge realizes Terri not only affects Terri, but could affect every one of us. Drudge needs and "intervention" - someone like Alan Keyes.
I used to think Terri was an isolated case, before I learned differently. Just this morning, I heard a caller on New York State's WABC say that she knew of a woman whose parents starved her to death in Orange County in New York State, and it took 2 weeks.
For the record, I would fight just as hard if Terri WERE an isolated case, as we all would.
You did a GREAT job and are an eloquent speaker. I wish he gave you more time, but when I called about another pro-life issue, I got even less time.
I guess you have to make your most important point in the first couple of sentences, because you never know when they will cut you off. I even find that when I call local talk shows with less callers.
THANKS!
I have been so depressed since he cut me off
I have been working very hard on trying to help Terri.
I get maybe 2-3 hours of sleep-- reading and reasearching, etc...
was just very disappointed to not get more out about TERRI!!!
SHE DESERVES A VOICE!!!!
thank you for your encouragement-- I needed it tonight...
MANY have put in a LOT OF HARD WORK FOR TERRI!!!
I am only one of MANY!!!
thanks to ALL OF YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO!!!
