There's a sweet sweet spirit in this place
And I know that it's the spirit of the Lord
There are sweet expressions on each face
And I know that it's the presence of the Lord
Sweet Holy Spirit
Sweet heavenly dove
Stay right here with us
Filling us with your love
And for these blessings
We lift our hearts in praise (hearts in praise)
Without a doubt we'll know that we have been revived
When we shall leave this place
Today is Maundy Thursday.
Yes, they are shouting very loudly!
YES
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
This is where the rubber meets the road in our Christian walk. There are times when, in spite of sincere, heartfelt prayer, things do not work out the way we prayed they would. I fervently pray that is not the case here. But no matter what happens we remember the words the Holy Spirit inspired the Apostle Paul to write: ALL things work together for good to them that love God......dear friends, if God said all, He included times like these.
It has been a real blessing to read along with you lovely brothers and sisters. You calmed me down when I was sobbing a little while ago, and helped me re-focus on God. We know that we all die once, no one escapes this world alive. But this time is barely a blink when compared with the eternity of joy that awaits the Believer. Thank you again....and now I will go back to quietly reading and praying with you all.

Amen
AMEN! I trust God and know God will not let this horrible crime go unpunished! And we won't let the people responsible forget it!
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. IN all Thy ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight!
Another break -- more after commercial.
ACTION AND UPDATE ALERT FROM TERRY RANDALL!!!
ALERT: Wednesday was a rollercoaster of emotions for
us, here in Tallahassee, Florida.
We've lobbied the state Senators HARD this past week,
trying to get just three swing votes to come our way.
On Wednesday, the bill that could have saved Terri
Schiavo from being starved to DEATH was defeated...
by just three votes.
There were a number of Senators who told us they were
either with us, or would abstain from voting... but
they LIED to us, and voted against the bill. It was a
disgusting display of politics, while this woman lies
dying.
But there was GOOD news, too.
At 2:00pm, we got a meeting between folks from RightMarch
(William Greene and our attorney, Larry Klayman) and
Governor Bush's chief counsel (his top lawyer on staff).
We presented information on why the Governor has the
authority RIGHT NOW under Florida Law and the state
constitution to take Terri into protective custody NOW,
and save her life.
One hour later, Gov. Bush held a press conference
announcing that he believes he has the authority to
take Terri into protective custody.
That was GREAT news... except, he DIDN'T DO IT. Instead
of stepping right in and saving Terri's life, he waited
until Judge Greer (who ordered Terri to be starved to
death) issued an order forbidding the Governor or his
agencies to get involved.
This is OUTRAGEOUS. Governor Bush needs to step up to
the plate NOW, and exercise his constitutional and legal
authority NOW, before Terri dies. But he doesn't seem
to be willing to take that chance and do it... so we
thought we should help encourage him.
So once more, we need YOUR help.
We need EVERYONE READING THIS EMAIL to call Governor
Jeb Bush RIGHT AWAY, and ask him to do one simple thing:
"PLEASE EXERCISE YOUR LEGAL AUTHORITY, AND TAKE
TERRI SCHIAVO INTO PROTECTIVE CUSTODY RIGHT AWAY."
That's all we're asking you to do. Just call Gov. Bush
NOW and beg him to save Terri's life.
TAKE ACTION: PLEASE call Governor Jeb Bush's office NOW
at 850-488-4441 (or fax him at 850-487-0801), asking him
to exercise the executive powers he ALREADY HAS, and take
custody of Terri Schiavo to save her from being starved
to death.
We've already met one-on-one with Gov. Bush's General Counsel
lawyers, showing them point-by-point exactly why the Governor
DOES have those powers right NOW. On Thursday, we're also
bringing in Alan Keyes and Larry Klayman to try to meet with
the Governor and urge him to take Terri into protective
custody. Call Gov. Bush NOW and ask him to USE his legal
powers to save Terri's life. You can also e-mail him at
jeb@myflorida.com .
You can also call his brother, President George W. Bush, at
202-456-1414 (or fax him at 202-456-2461). Leave a message
for him that he AND his brother both have the authority to
use the police services at their disposal to take Terri into
protective custody, restore her food and hydration, and
arrest anyone who would interfere. You can also e-mail him
at president@whitehouse.gov .
For the sake of Terri's life, we CANNOT afford to wait while
the courts bicker over jurisdiction -- and we CANNOT let
little two-bit judges order the Executive branch to not do
their duty.
NOTE: We are also asking you to give a donation to help
with the effort to save Terri's life. Battles cost money;
resources cost money; media costs money; I could go on,
but you get the picture. I am asking you to show your
support by making as generous a contribution as you can
to this effort. (Gifts are not tax deductible.)

Thank you for your concern, your prayers, your efforts, and
your support. Together, we can prevail against judicial
tyranny, and rescue Terri Schiavo from a cruel death.
Please keep us in your prayers.
Be sure to send this Alert to everyone you know who wants
to help save Terri's life. Thank you!
Sincerely,
William Greene, President

A Turkey..
So far he's given 7 Turkey's repreave... Seven Turkeys are more valuable than 1 abused woman.
Shamefull... Embarrasing.
Sweet Holy Spirit, you have met with us. Your presence is felt in this place. Your peace is flooding our hearts and the assurance that YOU are in CONTROL.
we should remind him of this on Thanksgiving... or now..
Lord, Thank you for hearing our prayers.
I can't take much more. I have to make dinner. If this comes down in Rerri's favor and DCF can go get her it may take me some time to get back here. I will be on the floor sobbing for a while.
With all the prayers going up now, the Lord has heard. His will is what we want, and we know we can be satisfied knowing we will get JUST that. ;-D
Amen
Peace, Peace,
Wonderful Peace,
Coming down from the Father above,
SWEEP OVER our SPIRIT forever WE PRAY,
IN Fathomless Billows of LOVE......
"The brother and sister being interviewed by Hannity. It was the first look we had after the hearing. It was obvious from their expressions that it didn't go well."
I think that they are just emotionally and physically drained and there is no way you know how a judge will rule...
I know that we've been revived right now! Bless you for all your wonderful words of encouragement and faith.
That you so much, Pattijo for reminding us that God works for good. Even in death, there is life.
(((((Hugs))))))
