"We still live in backwoods rural America with no rapid connectors to the net available to us yet....soon, we hope! :-)"

I posted your greeting in the Canteen.
I, also, live in a rural area.
I finally got 2 way satellite for my isp.
No dsl or cable will ever get here.

Prayers as always for our troops

It is with a sad heart that I ask prayers for a local family. We lost a great troop supporter this evening here. She literally passed away supporting our troops. This loving mother of 5 who have served our country with a son in-law currently in Iraq died on her way to greet troops returning home. I'm sorry to say that I was not there tonight but I did get word that once again our troops showed honor.

The chaplin on the flight had a small service for the troop greeter. God Bless him and our troops. The troops did get a welcome but they gave comfort to those who came to comfort.

Amen to another wonderful prayer, TexOkie. I join you, as always, in praying for our president, our military folks, and all of those in charge of our security, and in praying especially at this time for the loved ones of those whose bodies were so desecrated. Man's hatred is a vile and ugly thing to behold in all of its manifestations, but there is something particularly evil, and horrifying, about involving children in such violence and teaching them to rejoice in it.
May we look to God for instruction and guidance in what is good and right. May He surround us with His providence, open our eyes to every danger, give us courage to face it, wisdom to defeat it, and be our strength, shield and buckler as we do battle with the type of ignorance and evil that feeds hatred such as that - here and abroad. God grant us victory in this WOT for the sake of freedom all over the world, and may the resulting freedom give rise to glorification of our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

[fatima]

amom,Too excited to go to bed,first chance I had to get online-we hold our breath for Monday as dates have changed often.

[amom]

OH do I understand THAT. And the date changes can test a person to the max. Praying when Monday comes you are celebrating and all this is in the past.

[fatima]

amom,Glad you are awake.Karen is strong and we are held up with her strength,Monday might come and go, but we are ready.

[amom]

I'm calling it a night. You get some sleep so when Monday comes around you'll be well rested. I know, I know, easier said than done.

[fatima]

Night amom.

Dear TEXOKIE,

I've been away for a while and now catching up on reading all the posts. You ARE guided by the Holy Spirit, I am sure of it. Not like you, at this moment, my heart is full of pure hatred for the evil seeds who committed such unspeakable acts upon our people who were trying to help them. I shake with anger and want to pray that our Almighty God brings instant justice upon the guilty.

Can't even start to imagine how the families feel...

But, His Will be done in His time. I pray that He guides our leader and this nation and brings it back to what it once was, a Nation Under God.

[Chong]

BTW, my nephew, Chris, is back home safe now. Thanks for all your prayers.

REQUEST FOR PRAYERS

Prairiebreeze, one of our troop prayer thread participants is requesting prayers for Mary, wife of FReeper bulldogs, who is terminally ill and undergoing hospice care.

She has stated, "I'm writing to Pray for Pres. Bush list and will put up a post in Chat asking for prayers.

Time is short for Mary I believe. Many thanks."

While we try to maintain focus on this thread for our troops and those supporting them, we are pleased to pray on the thread for other FReepers in special instances. The prayer list for the thread itself is limited to our troops and those who support them and their families. As individuals you are invited to include Mary and bulldogs on your own personal prayer lists.

As I understand it, Billbears has threads available with the mission of praying for FReepers in need.

Beloved Heavenly Father,
We are praying at this time for bulldogs' wife, Mary, who is undergoing hospice care. We ask that you will surround her and comfort her and her entire family. Help them to resolve and bring into the highest state of love all their relationships. Guide this family during this difficult time.
Comfort and heal them. Take into your arms bulldogs' precious Mary. Help her medical people in the management of pain and other palliative therapies.

We ask for as many miracles of healing and comfort for Mary and her family as your great Law will allow. Please multiply our prayers for any and all who are undergoing a similar situation of need.
Amen

[Alamo-Girl]

I join in agreement with your prayer!

[prairiebreeze]
