A Line in the Sand

My heart aches over Terry Shaivo today. Her husband made a choice, a costly choice. It reminds me so much of Deb Raney's book A Vow to Cherish. A man with a choice to make...remain faithful to the wife of his youth, or turn away because of her illness, selfishly turn to another woman and forsake his vow to love, honor, cherish, protect until death.

I'm so glad Deb's book is being re-released.It's timely. This case will be fresh in the minds of folks who might try to justify Terry's husband's actions. Terry Shaivo is hopefully in the arms of Jesus, but she should still be alive. I believe her life was stolen because of selfishness.

There is a line being drawn in the sand. Jesus is separating sheep from goats. If the Terry Shaivo case weighs on your heart and you would like to see an example of Godly love, go out and buy A VOW TO CHERISH by Deb Raney. (maybe Deborah Raney). It's powerful. It's also a movie. But the movie (although good) doesn't do the book justice.
