PRAYER WARRIOR FIELD TRIP!!

I hadnt planned to send you on another field trip today, but this thread showed up, and how could I not bring it to you?

Just before President Bush's press conference, a rainbow appeared above the Whitehouse. It seems to me to be a very powerful symbol at a very critical time given to us by our beloved Father. Miracles for for Believers!

A circle of angels is protecting our president and may God give him strength in the months ahead.

Thank you, Texokie. I know we are all praying for President Bush, his family, and this administration. I think it would be nice if we sent him an email note of support to let him know that we are indeed with him in this fight for freedom as he surmised in his press conference tonight.

PRAYER WARRIOR FIELD TRIP!

Here is one more which I am certain you would not want to miss. Many thanks to each of you who pinged me!

RaceBannon posted a letter which General Major General James Mattis, the Commanding officer of the 1st MEF in Iraq wrote to the families of his troops back home. Not only is the letter itself inspiring, but the thread itself is too. Race informs us that a link to the thread has been sent to the General so everyone has the opportunity to send thanks, best regards, and other well wishes directly to him on the thread.

Finally took a few moments to rest in this peaceful place. TEX, thanks for your passionate leadership these difficult days. It is such a joy to be able to send worried loved ones your way - and recruit other FReepers by posting links to your inspired words.

Adding my prayers to those of our FR 'army' for Ordinary_American in Afghanistan, and JeeperFreeper's Marine son in Fallujah.

Thanks to RaceBannon for lifting up the families by sharing General Mattis's e-mail with us.

Thanks for the happy diversions, too, TEX - 'cept maybe the 'creepycrawly' one. *g*

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Please add Maj Gen James Mattis to the prayer list. This isn't the first time he's reached out with strengthening words as his Marines headed into harm's way, and their families held vigil back home.

Thank you!

"Please add Maj Gen James Mattis to the prayer list."

Excellent suggestion, Rags.

Beloved Father in Heaven,

We place before you one of our military leaders. His name is Maj Gen James Mattis of the US Marine Corps. Father, this man has shown over many years great integrity and love toward this nation and the men and women he leads. We ask that you will grant him one of our prayer blankets which is woven from our prayers and charged with all the blessed qualities of protection, power, courage, love, wisdom, insight, hope, health, ministration, and mercy from your heart to be issued to him according to need of the hour. Enfold him with heavenly armor and a golden chain mail which is impervious to all harm and that which would seek to interfere with your divine Will for his life.

We are grateful for the staunch service of this man to the Holy Cause of Freedom. Grant him all the spiritual resources that he needs in order to fulfill the vows he has made to duty and honor. Grant him extraordinary intercession in the world and especially on the battlefield to lead his troops to Victory.

We pray for this man and all the ones who serve under him. We pray for his colleagues who serve beside him. We pray for each of these these who are dedicated to doing hard and difficult jobs in order to maintain the safety and freedom of this nation. In each generation we have witnessed your best servants standing tall and paying the price for freedom which as has been said, is not free. We are grateful, Father for raising up in this generation those who have the Vision and courage in their willingness to continue in that service.

Father, bless this General officer and guide him on a path lit by the lanterns of your angels.

amen
