Judge George Greer ruled that the State of Florida has no right to take custody of Terri Schiavo, which ruling came hours after an appeal by Terri's parents to re-insert the feeding tube was refused by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, another hearing was scheduled tonight before US District Judge James D. Whittemore .. the same judge who previously heard and denied the request subsequent to the 'de novo' intention of the law past last weekend by the Congress and signed by President Bush, in an effort to confirm that no stone was left unturned before Terri would endure legally sanctioned dehydration until death.
I did a few times, but didn't find you.
We got there at 12:30AM Thursday morning, so we've seen what goes on at various times there.
I was thinking about going back late tonight, but I needed to let my husband sleep. He has gotten as involved as me.
Michael's people just seem to be unnaturally excited and animated by Terri's suffering.
The guy we bailed out thought he saw Michael at the jail. He said it was a big guy who came out of an office marked for doctors and didn't have a name tag on.
There's a great song by FFH called "Fly Away".. it always gets me happy thinking about it...
Ok you win, you caught me day dreaming again
About our sudden evacuation
Ok I give in, I can't help but wondering
But it seems I can't get enough information
Curiosity has got a hold on me
Tell me how it's gonna be - when
One day I'll see you coming back for me
And all together we'll fly away
One day I'll hear that trumpet loud and clear
And all together we'll fly away
O how I long for the day
When we'll fly away
Don't ask me why I keep starin' at the sky
It's just I'm lost in anticipation
I know it will be in the twinkling of an eye
It's just I get lost in my imagination
I love to imagine how big the Angels are.
This is from Daniel 10:8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
10:9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground. 10) And, behold, an hand touched me, which set m upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
10:11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for until thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
10:12 Then said he unto me, Fear NOT, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were HEARD, and I am come for thy words. 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
It goes on, but the main point (King James version), is the Angel told Daniel that he had heard his prayer right away but had to fight one of the bad angels for 21 days. The Angel got Michael the Angel to help him. I just love the thought of Angels all around us.
They probably laugh at us sometimes as we get so frustrated over how things are going. I'm sure there are Angels protecting Terri and Phil your friends dream sounds wonderful for Terri.
No matter what happens in the coming days, Our Lord is in control. I love to read the the old testament.
Also there's a Psalm that says the Angels harken unto the words of the Lord. I figure it might mean when we pray God's words back to him. Sweet precious Terri has caused so many of us, to get back on our knees where we belong. God has put such a Love for her in our hearts.
Sorry I've been about 2 hours behind you guys tonight. Don't know why I thought I needed to read all the posts.
First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out-
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the communists and I did not speak out- because I was not a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out- because I am not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak out for me.
"and how did you fare?"
Here is a brief exchange. You decide. Did he/she get tired or did I (the irrational one) tire him?
He/She: "More appropriately stated, I'm tired of speaking to the irrational"
Moi: "or, alternatively, the "irrational" tired you."
subsequently He/She retires from thread.
You want to hear something that got to me today?
Today we went to church for Good Friday. Second year we've done this activity or event. It goes on all day and people just show up when they want. There are rooms set up for reflection and prayer and some activity to do or thing to look at. and each one is a station of the cross. There's a big booklet we get and with each station, there is a verse, a longer scripture passage and a place we can write what we're feeling that pertains to that station.
At one we take communion. My kids and my favorite part is when we get to write things we want forgiveness for on paper, fold it and nail into a big wooden cross. Near the end was a big "tomb" that we went to sit in and you see what was supposed to be the buriel cloth of Jesus. It's a really quiet time, not supposed to talk, lights are low and no more then a few people at each station at a time.
I have said on here all week that I kept hearing God tell me, "Be still and know that I am God".
So guess what the very first verse in the station book was when I opened it?
I cried.
Are you serious Wampus~~??
A third party might have won. Wow.
I'm really surprised.
that one is very important right now.. it speaks to our times...
good golly... you've got more intestinal fortitude than I do for that stuff..
chills.. I love when He does that kinda stuff!
Disruptor! This is a prayer thread remember?!?
wow.. can't believe you have nothing better to do than sit around reading our posts so you can say OOOO LOOOKIE!! I GOT YOU!!!! whatever.. pretty freaking sad if you ask me.. now go away..
Really goodnight this time. Going on 1 a.m. Happy Easter! Soon, the Lord is Risen.
Let's hope Greer goes to jail and you won't have to Impeach him. This is all so unreal.
The lady who was killed by her husband, when Greer refused to give her an order of protection, actually worked as a nurse at the jail. This mess is like a spider web.
Don't be a hypocrite then!! *G*
"Scientologist-owned EarthLink Network Inc. announced $15 million of private financing this week to allow it to finish this year. (Soros)"
Thank you! Added to my collection.
Snipers! Not in my country they don't! God help us all.
I'd like to apologize to Ben Franklin now. Sorry Ben - we couldn't keep it.
I feel like a native-born alien.
