The 'President' may not honor this day,
But, our Troops will,
And, so will we!

Today is the National Day of Prayer and with that I would like to share this poem that is wonderful. It is called “In Christ Alone”

In Christ alone my hope is found;

He is my light, my strength, my song.

This Cornerstone, this solid Ground;

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.

What heights of love what depths of peace

When fears are stilled when strivings cease?

My comforter my All in All, here in the love of Christ I stand.

—-S. Townsend and K. Getty

Almighty and Eternal God,
Protect our soldiers as they discharge their duties. Protect them with the shield of your strength and keep them safe from all evil and harm. May the power of your love enable them to return home safely to the people who love them and to the gratitude of the American people..We ask this through Christ our Lord.
~~~

May God Keep Safe
All Who Keep Us Safe
