A Marine who needs your prayers
Engine82 | 12-7-04 | Engine82

Posted on 12/07/2004 7:15:05 PM PST by Engine82

A former student of mine who is serving in a honor guard unit in D.C. was attacked by two men on Saturday and stabbed in the stomach. The aorta which passes through the stomach and a major vein was damaged. At one time he was not expected to live. He was given 11 units of blood to survive.

I talked with his mother today. He is recovering and will be moved to a private room from ICU. His mother said today they can feel the prayers of praying people.

Heavenly Father, it is with grateful hearts that we thank You for sparing the life of this young Marine. May Your healing hand rest mightily upon him, unto the day of complete recovery. Bless the 11 unknown donors whose blood has made his life possible ... may they receive mercy from Your hand in their own time of need. In the Name of Jesus, Amen ...

I find it disgusting that the same nation this Marine is willing to give his life for, makes it "illegal" for him to defend himself against thugs in that same country.

Maybe some of his Marine buddies will go dish out some justice.

If I was on the jury, the Marines would walk.
