Almighty and eternal God, Protect our soldiers as they discharge their duties. Protect them with the shield of your strength and keep them safe from all evil and harm. May the power of your love enable them to return home safely to the people who love them and to the gratitude of the American people..We ask this through Christ our Lord.
TO OUR VETERANS, THOSE IN THE MILITARY AND THEIR FAMILIES *WE ARE SO GRATEFUL*

Evenin’ Yer Honor. Trust you had a great weekend.
Once again, thanks for posting the Military Tribute. Ran into an Air Force LCOL at the airport on our vacation and couldn’t turn down the opportunity to offer my thanks for a job well done.
Also, our neice (USAR - Major) was at the Great Family Gathering and I was able to thank her in person. I hugged the Major but not the Light Colonel.
Also found our a cousin is now serving in Iraq (US Army). Please add him to my name in the prayer group.
Was also able to spend the afternoon with my favorite Marine - my twin brother. ‘Twas a great vacation!
To: MEG33
I spent the past three days at Ft. Benning with 50 Boy Scouts and their parents. The boys did jump training, the leadership obstacle course, and the SAW simulator. The Scouts had an awesome time. My thanks goes out to the training men who gave up their personal time to allow our Scouts to experience just a taste of what the young men go through. HOOAH to all Ft. Benning Men and Women!!!

I sent a link to last week’s FR’s Finest to my son Ted. He thought it was pretty neat.
Thanks again Mr. Mayor for doing this tribute.

BTW Rus, I was checking some Congressional info on Thomas.gov and discovered a bill was passed in the Senate giving Veterans the authorization to salute The Colors.
Didn’t realize I’d been breaking the law all these years. Don’t think it’s been signed into law yet, but a step forward for those of us who revere The Colors of our nation.
To: Diver Dave
I am glad they got this done!

Unchanging Love
READ:
James 1:12-20Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights. James 1:17
At a wedding I attended, the brides grandfather quoted from memory a moving selection of Scripture about the relationship of husband and wife. Then a friend of the couple read Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare. The minister conducting the ceremony used a phrase from that sonnet to illustrate the kind of love that should characterize a Christian marriage: Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds. The poet is saying that true love does not change with circumstances.
The minister noted the many changes this couple would experience during their life together, including health and the inevitable effects of age. Then he challenged them to cultivate the true biblical love that neither falters nor fails in spite of the alterations that would surely come their way.
As I witnessed the joy and excitement of this young couple, a verse came to mind from James: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning (1:17). God never changes, and neither does His love for us. We are recipients of a perfect love from our heavenly Father, who has loved us with an everlasting love (Jer. 31:3).
We are called to accept His unfailing love, to allow it to shape our lives, and to extend it to others.
Unfailing is Gods matchless love,
So kind, so pure, so true;
And those who draw upon that love
Show love in all they do. D. De Haan
Gods love still stands when all else has fallen.

Mr. Mayor, I have been looking for a tagline. That last line in your lesson today seems like a good one~~~~~~what do you think?
