Illness and family duties have prevented me from writing for quite some time, but I had to weigh in on this.
The Court has ruled that Terri Schiavo's feeding tube be removed, and so it has. I am overcome with emotion, which often gets in the way of a clear thought. However, all I can think is that there is some reason for this and some lesson to be learned here. God grant us the wisdom to discover it.
The only thing left to do that perhaps we haven't done enough of is pray for our enemies, for surely The Husband and The Court are the enemies of those who hold life dear. If Jesus can say from the Cross, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do", can we do less? Pray for Terri, pray for her parents and those who have struggled to keep her alive, but pray too for those who are in most need of God's mercy.
