I know I forgot to ping someone. I only have 45 seconds left to be online this afternoon. Pant, pant, pant....

I just got an email from my Aunt Jil and wanted to let you know my cousin George is going into Iraq tomorrow. Please keep him lifted up before the throne of our loving Father. Here is my aunt's email. Also, I have George's address if anyone wants it. He confessed before Christmas that he was a little scared about going, so please pray for courage and comfort for him.

He called today and said they were FOUR football fields from Iraq. They are moving in to Iraq tomorrow. The plan is to travel 6 hours and camp doing this for 3 days. They will drive through downtown Baghdad to a place approximately 20 miles north of Baghdad. It looks like the group he will be with is located in the lower part of the red zone or red triangle they show on t.v. I was told today not to watch any news again. I know it is the best advice Gee could give. However, I am writing to ask all to be praying for these men and women going in, for their safety now and in the future. Also, pray they all come home safely, if it is God’s will.

God bless you all today. :) Hope you're having a good one.

You have my prayers for your cousin George.

Lord protect George and his unit and compatriots as they move into harm's way. Give them strength and courage to perform their duties to the best of their abilities.

In Christ's name, AMEN!

Hard prayers for courage, comfort and safety for all of those new young men going into the battlefield. They all have every reason to be a little scared, Spookie. It's so hard to prepare for the enemy they face. When people aren't afraid to blow themselves up just to kill the Americans, that is scary.
