Joyce Kilmer (1886–1918)
MY shoulders ache beneath my pack
(Lie easier, Cross, upon His back).
I march with feet that burn and smart
(Tread, Holy Feet, upon my heart).
Men shout at me who may not speak
(They scourged Thy back and smote Thy cheek).
I may not lift a hand to clear
My eyes of salty drops that sear.
(Then shall my fickle soul forget
Thy Agony of Bloody Sweat?)
My rifle hand is stiff and numb
(From Thy pierced palm red rivers come).
Lord, Thou didst suffer more for me
Than all the hosts of land and sea.
So let me render back again
This millionth of Thy gift. Amen.

ALWAYS seems to fit.....

As our Holy season approaches, we renew our prayers for our troops and their families. We are thankful for all of our men and women in uniform and for their service to not only this great land, but in protecting freedom all over the world.
We are grateful for those who have served before them. For had it not been for them.... we would not be free today.
Liberty will always prevail. Freedom is the light of the world.
God bless them one and all... and the very best of this Holiday season to everyone.
Our love and thanks... and prayers always,
*TT*, Beth & Nana
AMEN
Between now and the first week in January will be the hardest on our troops. Pray for them if you get a chance.
Thanks for the tribute!

My friend, Lt. Col. Sharon Jacko (Marines) is due home in January. I'd also like to pray for Major Joan Salinas in Irbil (a friend of Sharon's with whom I've been in touch).
