EXACTLY!!!! Yet, having seen the miracles, they grumbled! Time to start trusting. We still need to be as active as possible, but we also have to start proving we trust the God we're praying to!

[nanetteclaret]

Here is the Lord's promise:

Psalm 64
Hear me, O God, as I voice my complaint;
protect my life from the threat of the enemy.
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked,
from that noisy crowd of evildoers.
They sharpen their tongues like swords
and aim their words like deadly arrows.
They shoot from ambush at the innocent man;
they shoot at him suddenly, without fear.
They encourage each other in evil plans,
they talk about hiding their snares;
they say, "Who will see them?"
They plot injustice and say,
"We have devised a perfect plan!"
Surely the mind and heart of man are cunning.
But God will shoot them with arrows;
suddenly they will be struck down.
He will turn their own tongues against them
and bring them to ruin;
all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
All mankind will fear;
they will proclaim the works of God
and ponder what he has done.
Let the righteous rejoice in the LORD
and take refuge in him;
let all the upright in heart praise him!

JUST DOING SOME DIGGING.......

Chief judge looked into scandal

Judge F. Dennis Alvarez investigated on his own a case involving a fellow Hillsborough jurist.

The JQC has opened an investigation into Alvarez's handling of Ficarrotta's affair. Ficarrotta resigned last year rather than face formal charges by the JQC.

Alvarez had asked authorities to keep the documents released Wednesday secret. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement initially agreed, but released them when confronted with a public records request by the Times.

"All of this is history," Alvarez said. "I'm glad it's behind us."

Among the records released is an Aug. 25, 1999, letter from bailiff Pisano's attorney, Barry Cohen, to Alvarez that spells out the charges against Ficarrotta. Cohen said Ficarrotta accosted Pisano "in an intimidating, hostile manner" in a hearing room in front of then-Circuit Judge James Whittemore and his aide.

Whittemore, now a federal judge in Tampa, and his aide declined comment Wednesday.

According to the letter, Ficarrotta threatened to use his close relationship with the sheriff to damage Pisano's job and the job of her husband, who also works for the sheriff. Ficarrotta and the sheriff were social friends, and Ficarrotta raised money for the sheriff, Cohen wrote.

Cohen asked Alvarez to take immediate action to "end the harassment." He added that Alvarez would receive additional information that would "disgrace and discredit" Ficarrotta and the judiciary in general.

I don't think Jeb is the problem here as I don't think he can send state troopers out and kidnap Terri. I just don't think that is legal myself.

[Graymatter]

Yes, even after the bill was signed in 2003, Felos & Schiavo resisted and dragged out the "Process" for as long as they could, intimidating and threatening doctors who might agree to restoring the tube.

[atruelady]

Lets not be to hard on the judge. I know that it is critical mass time for Terri, but maybe if he reviews the information, he too will see what we are all seeing and reading and make the right decision.

God has brought us this far. Lets not be as Israelites who doubted God at the Red Sea.

God will come through for us. God will show that he is in charge here.

[pollywog]

good morning nanetteclaret. Thanks for the beautiful morning scripture reading !!!! GOD IS GOOD!!

[TruthSetsUFree]

"Long and the short of it is, the fever is gone! I don't know if she received antibiotics, but that sucker's outta there."

It's an answer to prayer. To God be all the glory!

[freepertoo]

Hey. Felos has been really quiet, hasn't he? I haven't read a statement...not that I want to.

[freepertoo]

Yep!!! All glory!

[atruelady]

Tell the cop to MYOB. He can't order people NOT to talk to the media.

This case and all the collusion reeks.

[atruelady]

[valleygal]

It is odd to me, we are all in the same position as those who are having last minute death sentence appeals.

I know, all this nervous enegy and scrambling back and forth form computer to TV and hanging on every scrap of info. I have so much to do today and a class tonight to prepare for... I'm sure we all do...but I can't seem to tear myself away.

[pollywog]

EVERYONE IN THE AREA...GET TO THE COURTHOUSE!

[justche]

I pray God is caring and hydrating Terri with water that we don't even know of......

AMEN!!!!

[nanetteclaret]

Hi, polly -

Here's another promise:

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.
