Terri's Battlecry
"Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God's sight to obey [them] rather than God." ~Acts 4:19
Obedience to God's Law has always been the judicial foundation for this nation birthed in freedom. Always has been, is not now and MUST become again. How, in God's name did we think we could be a government by the people otherwise? This is the cradle of freedom...when the branches start fighting about who is right, the ultimate Truth MUST be derived from the Christian Bible and the Constitution. (NO CONFLICT HERE) God gets the last word. Since when would God ever want parents and siblings to have to watch a daughter/sister starve to death when it is NOT circumstances beyond anyone's control? God is the God of Life. Satan is the Father of death. Even if euthanasia were acceptable in God's eyes, (and it might be ONLY because of the extreme measures of modern medicine. I might wonder if they could revive and keep a corpse alive!) there must be a sworn affidavit/living will. None of this, "she said" evidence. Both sides said she said. The intent of solely the patient must be clear and suicide wishes don't count. Moreover, where on earth did we get the notion that feeding tube equals drastic measures?! Pumping the heart--making the person breathe--yeah, that gets weird and not very natural. But removing a feeding tube is too much like denying the emphysema sufferer an oxygen tank. C'mon, babies can't eat food either...oh, that's right! The law of the land has been allowing infanticide for a while. Could that be why this death of a disadvantaged woman was so acceptable to so many? Afterall, this case would never have happened in the entire history of this country...and never did, until now.
"I am gone like a shadow at evening;
I am shaken off like a locust.
My knees are weak through fasting.
My body has become gaunt with no fat...
With my mouth, I will give great thanks to the Lord.
I will praise Him in the midst of the throng,
For He stands at the right hand of the needy,
To save [her] from those who condemn [her] soul to death."
~Psalm 109:23,24,30,31
Dear Terri, rest in peace, your life's work done. The battle for Life, you have begun. Like a soldier lying down for freedom's cause. The army is stirring, onward, without pause.
