Father...I just thank you for this loving vessel...you committed these two children in to her and her husbands loving care, to see them grow into two wonderful human beings...but ultimately you are their heavenly father...give her the courage...to place them back into your loving hands...and to know that no matter what happens in their path that she can trust you...that she was chosen and has been blessed to be part of the bigger picture in their lives...rather they have long lives to live out here on earth...or called home...they as parents have been faithful at the task of raising them to know you...that time here on earth is just a brief journey....and we will eternally be with those that we love if Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. Amen...Be Blessed.

I am a huge supporter of ALL TROOPS and its not easy knowing your son is going to war. I talk to guys in Iraq daily and try and give them moral support. Your being a mom and being protective because you don't want anything happening to him. It's completely normal. It's going to be hard. I am so sorry to hear about your daughter also. I will keep them both in my thoughts and prayers and YOU also. Maybe try joining some "Military Mom" groups that are out there. You can all help each other get through the tough times. Good Luck and I know it's going to be hard but try and think positive. God Speed!

I believe in God but I think I would be terrified too. I have not yet given birth to my first son, I am 7 months pregnant, but knowing I am having a boy I already think about stuff like that. I will definatly pray for you and for your family that God will give you peace and keep your son safe while he is in Iraq. My name is Heather too and I will pray for your Heather! God Bless!

God bless and I will be happy to pray for you. Do not be moved by what you see . The lord gathers his children under his arm like a mother hen with her chicks. He holds you and yours in the palm of his hand and no weapon that if formed against you shall prosper.
My prayer is that your son and daughter shall be safe and your daughter healed. I pray that all are healed in mind , body and soul as needed.
Just keep your eyes on Jesus and my prayers will continue for your son and daughter as well as all our soldiers in Iraq.

My sincerest thanks to your son for serving his country in a time when many people question. It shows what a true man he really is. In a country where entertainers and sports figures are made out to be heroes and role models people forget who our true heroes are. Men and women like your son are the reason we can enjoy our lives today. They really are the true heroes.
And bless you m'aam for obviously doing such a wonderful job of raising this fine man. Your values and morals have made him who he is today. As a former Marine my thoughts and prayers are with your son and all our troops. But I know they've been trained well and will do their best. Again, Thank you.

We know that there's nothing we can do in times like these. Calm down and pray like so:
Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can, and
the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen
I just said a prayer for you and your family. :-)

the right answer to the first question is to desire besides. commence. the genuine impediment is to commence. in simple terms commence speaking. you're literally not meant to be "sparkling earlier God"--He cleans you once you refer to Him. that is the way it truly works. And as for question quantity 2, you do not ought to "understand" the Bible to apply reading it. in simple terms commence (wow! similar answer). commence reading, and as you study, you'll come to appreciate. it is going to take time, yet in simple terms the act of reading cleanses you. The barren area fathers tell a narrative about a monk who grew annoyed reading the Bible. He went to the his non secular father and stated, "i do not realize! what's the point of reading at the same time as i do not realize!" His father replied, "Take this previous basket, fill it with water from the flow, and produce it again." And the monk did as he replaced into instructed, regardless of the reality that the water streamed out. His non secular father requested him to do the same a number of situations. Then he requested the monk, "What do you understand the basket?" The monk stated, "that is totally sparkling." And his father stated, "So it truly is with reading the Scripture. regardless of the reality that you received't understand at the starting up or imagine you're protecting something, you're being cleansed each day by technique of the reading."
