I think he's finally gone too far. He's turned them all down.

You know there are plenty of examples in the Bible when something appeared to be very bad but worked out for good, prime example Joseph. I'm believing that all these NO's from Greer the Grinch are going to be very good for Terri because it's going to force the hand of the more powerful.

Maybe, just maybe, tutstar, the more powerful are forcing the hand of Greer the Grinch ... not only the power on earth, but the Power in Heaven. Hallelujah!

I couldn't agree with you more! BECAUSE Greer said no to everything! He's closing all the doors, so God will have to blow the roof off!

I'm believing that all these NO's from Greer the Grinch are going to be very good for Terri because it's going to force the hand of the more powerful.

When I saw these last no's I knew he was forcing the hand of God.

I just have this nearly certain hope that after Greer says no to the DCF, God will act. God's going to do *something*.

Greer is like a worm squirming between to sharp rocks. If he tried to reverse himself now and start ruling in Terri's favor he would only make himself look guilty as sin

But, by ruling against Terri over and over again at this juncture, he is only making himself look more guilty.

I hope he enjoys this little position of pain that he has put himself in, because Greer is darned if he does and darned if he doesn't right now.

I bet he lays awake at night and wishes he had never heard the name of Terri schiavo.

I was not familiar with this Psalm 35, but one of you mentioned it, and I thank you. I've been going through quite an extended period of worry and stress about an unhappy situation. I prayed this prayer last night, and today, I received a tangible possibility conveyed to me of an answer to my dilemma, thank you Lord.

It's long, and though some of the sentiments are a bit more violent than I'm used to praying, I post it here, as I know glorification and praise to our Dear Lord can only help. I pray this prayer tonight as if it's coming from Terri, God Love her. (New tagline .. swiped in part from DJ (thank you ;)

========================

Psalm 35:4-12, 16-28

May those who seek my life
be disgraced and put to shame;
may those who plot my ruin
be turned back in dismay.
May they be like chaff before the wind,
with the angel of the LORD driving them away;
may their path be dark and slippery,
with the angel of the LORD pursuing them.
Since they hid their net for me without cause
and without cause dug a pit for me,
may ruin overtake them by surprise-
may the net they hid entangle them,
may they fall into the pit, to their ruin.
Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD
and delight in his salvation.
My whole being will exclaim,
"Who is like you, O LORD ?

You rescue the poor from those too strong for them,
the poor and needy from those who rob them."
Ruthless witnesses come forward;
they question me on things I know nothing about.
They repay me evil for good
and leave my soul forlorn.
Like the ungodly they maliciously mocked;
they gnashed their teeth at me.
O Lord, how long will you look on?

Rescue my life from their ravages,
my precious life from these lions.
I will give you thanks in the great assembly;
among throngs of people I will praise you.
Let not those gloat over me
who are my enemies without cause;
let not those who hate me without reason
maliciously wink the eye.
They do not speak peaceably,
but devise false accusations
against those who live quietly in the land.
They gape at me and say, "Aha! Aha!
With our own eyes we have seen it."

O LORD, you have seen this; be not silent.
Do not be far from me, O Lord.
Awake, and rise to my defense!
Contend for me, my God and Lord.
Vindicate me in your righteousness, O LORD my God;
do not let them gloat over me.
Do not let them think, "Aha, just what we wanted!"
or say, "We have swallowed him up."
May all who gloat over my distress
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who exalt themselves over me
be clothed with shame and disgrace.
May those who delight in my vindication
shout for joy and gladness;
may they always say, "The LORD be exalted,
who delights in the well-being of his servant."
My tongue will speak of your righteousness
and of your praises all day long.

All those NO's just make GREER look incredibly biased. I think Attorney Gibbs has given GREER the rope to hang himself, and GREER has.

WE'll see if the more POWERFUL step in as is their duty.
