I'd like to send her the thread to encourage her.
Prayer request!
God bless you Sharon.
May God Bless you, one and all, who serve!
Back atcha, babe, tenfold! You are the best of the best. Be safe and God bless.
Sharon, you are a very honorable woman and I am but one of many Americans who are proud to see that people like you are out in Iraq risking your life for the safety of this blessed country. May God protect you through this difficult time.
What a revelation. There becase of God.
Praying.
PING!!!
I believe it.... backing you up in prayer!
PING!!!
Dear Sharon, it is wonderful for us back here in the States to hear from you. I want you to know how we pray for you all and how our love goes with you, whether we have a name or not. Our gratitude cannot be put into words. God bless you and keep you and all of our brave young men and women.
Tearfull ping...
For Sharon and our military, David walks with you.
Psalm 55
Prayer for the Destruction of the Treacherous.
A Maskil of David.
8
"I would hasten to my place of refuge
From the stormy wind and tempest."
9
Confuse, O Lord, divide their tongues,
For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
10
Day and night they go around her upon her walls,
And iniquity and mischief are in her midst.
11
Destruction is in her midst;
Oppression and deceit do not depart from her streets.
12
For it is not an enemy who reproaches me,
Then I could bear it;
Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me,
Then I could hide myself from him.
13
But it is you, a man my equal,
My companion and my familiar friend;
14
We who had sweet fellowship together
Walked in the house of God in the throng.
15
Let death come deceitfully upon them;
Let them go down alive to Sheol,
For evil is in their dwelling, in their midst.
God bless you Sharon and all the men and women who are with you. Our prayers and thanks go to you for the work you are doing.
All real Americans are four-square behind her!
Shows what a throwback I am when I got to the end and saw that the writer was a woman..........caught me off guard.
A beautiful letter. God bless Sharon, and God bless our Marines...and Army.......and Air Force......and Navy.....and civilians who are busting their humps to free these people; God's people as much as we are.
That's keeping the faith!
Dear Lt. Col, Jacko
My wife and I appreciate your being there in Iraq for not just the kids that you know, but also for the 3 little girls here (ages, 8, 5 and 5) that you don't know yet, and who will keep you in their prayers.
After reading your letter to them we all said the following prayer for you.
"God our Father,
Maker and lover of peace,
to know you is to live,
and to serve you is to reign.
All our faith is in your saving help;
protect us from men of violence,
and keep us safe from weapons of hate."
My wife and I also send you the following,
"God our Father,
you reveal that those who work for peace
will be called your sons.
Help us to work without ceasing
for that justice
Which brings true and lasting peace."
May God Bless you and keep you safe.
With our deepest gratitude,
Rob and Rachel Alvelais
The enemy behind the enemy is working overtime, but we know how the story ends, are connected and united against the enemy, with Sharon from the homefront.
Thanks for the pings, Maigrey and DivaBetsyRoss!
