"Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted in the marketplaces, and have the most important seats … and places of honor. They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. Such men will be punished most severely … Mark 12:38-40).
Amen, joanie! But just because we can't get justice out of the courts doesn't mean there is no Justice. A day of reckoning lies ahead for all those complicit in the death of this innocent who was manifestly entitled to their protection.
On the one hand, we must leave them to the Judgment of God. On the other, in light of the profound insult to our republic occasioned by this hideous affair, I find these words of yours spot-on:
Those who are determined to cling steadfastly to God’s truths cannot allow Terri’s murder, and the identities of those who were either actively or passively complicit in it, to fade from our memories. We need to remember who Terri’s enemies were -- both those who actively sought her demise, and those who had the power to save her and yet did not choose to venture far from their own emotional comfort zones. Terri’s death is a watershed event that portends dark, perilous times for our republic, unless we now begin to work to unmask the evil and the indolent among the ranks of our ‘leadership’, and work to remove them from their positions of power.
May God bless Terri and comfort her agonized, traumatized, and cruelly insulted family; and may He have mercy on all the rest of us."Thank you"betty boop"
I totally agree. And......the prayer next to your name is so dear to my heart and I pray it every day. Thank you.
