One of the early American flags said Freedom, Unity.
Sounds like what the military is up to.

Royal Australian Air Force Hornets have just carried out their first strike missions in Iraq in the war against ISIS.
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.

What Do You Expect?
Oct 9, 2014
Read: John 16:25-33
In C. S. Lewis book God in the Dock, he wrote: Imagine a set of people all living in the same building. Half of them think it is a hotel, the other half think it is a prison. Those who think it a hotel might regard it as quite intolerable, and those who thought it was a prison might decide that it was really surprisingly comfortable. Lewis cleverly used this contrast between a hotel and a prison to illustrate how we view life based on our expectations. He says, If you think of this world as a place intended simply for our happiness, you find it quite intolerable; think of it as a place of training and correction and its not so bad.
Sometimes we expect that life should be happy and pain-free. But that is not what the Bible teaches. For the believer, this world is a place of spiritual development through both good times and bad. Jesus was realistic when He explained what to expect in life. He told His disciples, In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world (John 16:33). In facing lifes blessings and bruises, we can have the inner peace that God is orchestrating events according to His sovereign plan.
Christs presence in our lives enables us to be of good cheer even in the midst of pain.
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
Gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest. Berg
In the midst of troubles, peace can be found in Jesus.
Knowing that He would soon be betrayed and killed, Jesus gave His disciples a farewell speech, which is recorded in John 13:3116:33, also known as the Upper Room Discourse. Warning of difficult times ahead for Him and His disciples (16:32), Jesus assured them of Gods presence and peace (vv.32-33). He concluded His speech on a triumphant note: Be of good cheer, I have overcome the world (v.33).
