Be also with her family...let them be so aware of your presence that they cannot help but be encouarged and strenghtened. In Jesus name. We praise you for your faithfulness...you inhabit the praises of your people. We love you, we praise you, we thank you. In Jesus name.
So many people all over the country are praying for Terri. This group here on FR is so faithful!
Agreeing in prayer with all of you.
Father we adore you

Even if a boycott is ineffective politically, I cannot in good conscience bring myself to give a cent to a state that would do this to one of its citizens. So it's not even really about making a statement. It's what I have to do morally. I have always wondered how people could do business with the Nazis. I won't be guilty of supporting the "legal" killers of my day.
How long wilt Thou forget me, O Lord? Forever?
How long wilt Thou hide Thy face from me?
How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
having sorrow in my heart daily?
How long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
Consider and hear me, O Lord my God;
lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him;
and those who trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
But I have trusted in Thy mercy;
my heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.
I will sing unto the Lord,
because He hath dealt bountifully with me.
Do YOU think it was effective? As far as I know, France is still up and running, and their ideology hasn't changed because of that boycott. Did the Baptist boycott of Disney make a significant difference? Did the pro-abortion boycott of Dominoes Pizza hurt their business? For every boycott by one side of a debate, their will be people on the other side who will give even more of their business to those companies to compensate. In the end you will just end up spinning your wheels while the all-powerful judges will keep on doing whatever the heck they want to do.
This is not a case of a company doing something wrong and a boycott letting them know you don't approve. This is a case of judges playing God and unless you can find a way to boycott their courtrooms you're not going to make any changes that way.
Sure the senators could've made a huge difference, but who when they elected these senators could've possibly forseen what was going to happen in this particular case? Let's quit trying to blame everything on Floridians out of runaway emotions and recognize that this is a problem with our entire judicial system.
And for those of you wishing more hurricanes on us, your lack of compassion betrays you. How can you pretend to care about one human life while hoping other innocents suffer the way so many did last summer. People died in those hurricanes. Innocent people lost their homes. If you seriously believe anyone deserves that because they lacked information or clairvoyance when they cast their ballots, then how can you expect anyone to take your compassion for Terri seriously?
"Smite"...now that's word you don't hear often enough!
And Lead Us Not Into Temptation
Yes, tears here, too...I just saw your song
We are agreeing in prayer O Lord! Hear our cries!!
Amen. Thank you for your eloquent prayer. I'm having trouble stringing two words together, so I appreciate it very much.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow ...

Is an awesome God he reigns
