PRAYER REQUEST (PLEASE)

My wonderful DH came home from pre-deployment flight training tonight with some sad news. One of our friends (and one of his former co-workers) was killed in a plane crash in Florida last night. He retired from my wonderful DH's unit a few years ago, and was working as a civilian contractor and was with two other men flying a training mission with the USAF when (possibly due to weather), their plane went down, killing all three on board. Because we're here in Florida, we'll miss his memorial service back in California. He leaves behind a wife and three school-aged sons. He was in his mid-40s or so, about 2-3 years older than my wonderful DH. Anyway, for those of you so inclined, please pray for him/his family ~ and for my wonderful DH, too. We also got word today that a USAF F-22 crashed in Alaska and that pilot is missing. It was definitely a hard day for military (and former military) pilots ... and I must admit it doesn't help my anxiety about my wonderful DH's upcoming 7th deployment.

National Pride
November 19, 2010

My wife, Martie, and I have grown to love England—its history, culture, and people. One of our favorite activities when we visit is going to outdoor concerts (also known as proms) on the sloping lawns of ancient estates. “The Last Night of the Proms” event is the best, with fireworks and hundreds of nationals waving little British flags to rousing patriotic tunes.

We loved joining the celebration—until the summer our children came with us. When we started waving our flags with all the enthusiastic Brits, our kids were aghast. I can still hear them shouting over the music, “What are you doing?! You’re Americans!”

God must often feel like that when we blend in and live like the “locals” around us. I can almost hear Him saying, “What are you doing living like that?! You belong to My nation!”

Peter reminds us that we are different from the locals—we are a “holy nation” (1 Peter 2:9). Being holy means that we are unique, set apart for Jesus, becoming like Him, and reflecting His countercultural ways of living. It means that we are forgiving in the face of cruel offenses; and merciful, gracious, truthful, and loyal to our promises. It means being just like Him.

So let’s start waving the flag of holiness as members of the “Jesus nation”!

O child of God, guard well your life
From anything that stains the heart;
Forsake those things that soil the mind—
Your Father wants you set apart. —Fasick

Our loyalty to Jesus should be seen and heard in our lives.

Read: 1 Peter 2:9-17

You are a chosen generation, . . . a holy nation . . . that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness. —1 Peter 2:9

Bible in a year:
Ezekiel 11-13; James 1

Evening, Kathy. Hope you’re keeping warm. (It’s finally getting cold here.)

[Prussianone]

No matter what anyone else says, this Viet Vet salutes all of you who are out there, on the line, in the dirt, on the water, in the air, defending this great Republic. You are doing us proud, men and ladies, and don’t let anyone tell you different!

Can't play too late, we have a mission in the morning...

Fantastic opening graphic!

In my little corner of the world, Friday arrives in 8 minutes.

Also in my little corner, we have no military bases close by, but a lot of Veteran’s have bumper stickers, decals on the rear windows (including dd) of their vehicles. Each one gets a salute from this old squid as I pass by. Some return the salute while others have not seen the honor I offer them. Nonetheless, as long as my right arm can be raised to offer a salute, it will continue.

Salute to all who currently serve as well as my fellow Vets.

Thanks to one and all who post and read the comments at the Canteen. Our troops and Vets deserve nothing less.
