Amen .. such an appropriate passage. Prayer for Terri bump!
I saw that too and laughed. Sorry but I couldn't help it. There's a German word Freepers use but I can't spell it.
schadenfreude \SHAHD-n-froy-duh\, noun:
A malicious satisfaction in the misfortunes of others.
Being an Example of His Message " Preach the word! "
2 Timothy 4:2
We are not saved only to be instruments for God, but to be His sons and daughters. He does not turn us into spiritual agents but into spiritual messengers, and the message must be a part of us. The Son of God was His own message"The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life" ( John 6:63 ). As His disciples, our lives must be a holy example of the reality of our message. Even the natural heart of the unsaved will serve if called upon to do so, but it takes a heart broken by conviction of sin, baptized by the Holy Spirit, and crushed into submission to Gods purpose to make a persons life a holy example of Gods message.
There is a difference between giving a testimony and preaching. A preacher is someone who has received the call of God and is determined to use all his energy to proclaim Gods truth. God takes us beyond our own aspirations and ideas for our lives, and molds and shapes us for His purpose, just as He worked in the disciples lives after Pentecost. The purpose of Pentecost was not to teach the disciples something, but to make them the incarnation of what they preached so that they would literally become Gods message in the flesh. ". . . you shall be witnesses to Me . . ." ( Acts 1:8 ).
Allow God to have complete liberty in your life when you speak. Before Gods message can liberate other people, His liberation must first be real in you. Gather your material carefully, and then allow God to "set your words on fire" for His glory.
======================
We MUST PRAY .. from our deepest core for Terri and those in whose hands rest the earthly life and death decisions that are rightfully our Dear Lord's to render. Prayers for Terri, her devoted family and her warriors, and to grace her opponents with humanity ... every prayer whispered in God's ear is another brick on the path to God's ultimate will. And we must pray to accept God's will for Terri .. for we know not His plan.

I believe that anyone can send a letter of nomination but I'm not certain.
I'd like to know something more about Hammesfahr other than that he was nominated by somebody for an award he didn't win. (I'm hoping that his credentials are impressive in other ways)
I have posted his website. I had a link to a forum where patients were singing his praises but I can't find it now. I found it in a Google search.
Thanks. I gave up trying to spell it. I have it written down now. :)
I had to look it up too for the correct spelling ; )
I also been looking deep into these connections. It reminds me of the old movie with Demi Moore "The Seventh Sign", and connecting this major event in Clearwater, Florida with the Fatima 3rd secret.
There are connections and many, many coincidences .
For example: Part of the 3rd secret text, St. Luica who just died on Sunday Feb 13th, 2005 wrote this:
"Throughout history there have been supernatural appartions and SIGNS which go to the HEART of human events and which, to the surprise of believers and non-believers alike, play their part in unfolding of history..."
There's more referance's that seem to connect with this test in Clearwater at this time in history...here's a clue:
http://www.sheperds-of-christ.org/news_1.htm
I wonder to myself why would a image of a women with no face show-up in Clearwater, Florida ??? Then I started connecting the dots....."It's a test"(In a nutshell) to see if we still have hope, and if we lose this battle..Horrorable things will fly...here's another pic:

There's so much more, but I leave at that...U know why
THANK YOU, Thank you, THANK YOU
for going to Florida.
I cannot go, I'm in France. I practically wept with delight when I read that YOU WOULD go.
God's speed.

LOL! Think he has a 666 on the back of his head too?
No, that is not what I meant and I am sorry if you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I said well good, at least you live in Florida...meaning you are there on the front line of battle and I have only been a tourist there. When you said you live there, it let me know that you have a better understanding of what the DCF can and cannot do than than those of us from out of state. I apologize for not being clearer.

Sancta Lucia,ora pro nobis
Someone (i forget who) asked which committee passed the bill. I found this--
Florida lawmakers target Schiavo case
TALLAHASSEE, Fla., March 10 (UPI) -- A Florida Legislative committee has approved a bill to prevent removing the feeding tube from a brain-damaged Tampa woman.
The bill that passed the House Health Care Regulation Committee would prevent a guardian from withholding food and water from an incompetent person without direct orders from the patient, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Thursday.
The bill is aimed at Terri Schiavo, whose feeding tube is scheduled for removal March 18 by her husband, Michael, who said that's what she would want. Her parents are trying to prevent the removal and subsequent death of the woman who the courts have determined is in a permanent vegetative state.
Legislators passed a bill in the case last year, but it was subsequently ruled unconstitutional.

I wish I could take full credit for it, alas someone else started it.
Any news yet on the court procedings today? I am actually kind of hoping he denies the DCF 60 days. I think all h*ll will break loose if he does.
