Godspeed

We're in a war at this time of life. A war that doesn't seem like it will end. But do not lose hope - God is in control. That is a wonderful peace. But right now, let's pray for the soldiers that are fighting. Many of my friends and family are fighting over in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and other places. All I want is for them to live their faith so that others might be saved, and for them to come home alive. Many people have lost loved ones, and it is a cruel and devastating tragedy to lose someone through war. But even still, God is in control. Let's pray and wish our soldiers Godspeed and send them our love. They are sacrificing themselves for our beloved freedom which we prize so highly. They are leaving their families and friends to go fight not only for them, but for me and you - someone they don't even know. Many will die with honor, with loyalty to America. Let's honor them and give them the credit due - to be remembered as heroes. Let's thank God for men (and women) who are selfless enough to go and fight for us. Godspeed to you, soldiers, and may God protect you, encourage you, and lift you up. The wars are fierce now, and the days are dark and seem hopeless. But God will save His children. Have faith and fight, soldiers. Fight for your country and your freedom which God has given you.
"For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee." Isaiah 41:14
"Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you." Isaiah 35:3,4
"...Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them; For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you."
