UPDATE!

TruthNtegrity updated us in post 211 on the troops he/she has placed on our prayer list! Truth has also requested prayer for these special troops and their families.

Welcome home, John. Thank you so very much for your 30 year service!

What wonderful things Ben has been doing and is looking forward to doing! What a special thing to be able to celebrate the 80th with his grandmother. What a special blessing that had to be for the entire family!

LOL! Goofing is allowed! We are grateful to learn of the fabulous work in engineering that Andy is doing there at Annapolis. His presence there proves he is among the cream of the crop, and we are immensely proud of him.

We rejoice to hear of the reunion of pilot LTC Andrew with his family. We are especially pleased to hear of the first meeting Andrew has had with his new son.

We are glad to know about Keith being still in Iraq, so we can be sure to keep him and his young family in our prayers.

Thank you again for updating us, TruthNtegrity. It is so helpful to learn about the unfoldment of events in the lives in our troops, and their particular needs for prayer. I join you in gratitude for our Prayer Warriors who have made it their calling to pray for our troops.



Beloved Father,

We petition you for your intercession and guidance in the life of your servant, John, who has retired from the Navy after a 30 year career. Please open the doors and make plain the Path which you set before him in this new phase of life. We ask that you will shatter and bind any and all opposition to the fulfillment of his divine Plan. Surround his entire family and assist them in the adjustments to be made in this new time of opportunity for them. Bless them and keep them and all who are in a similar situation.

We place on our altar the life and situation of Ben, in the Marines. We pray for him to be surrounded and blessed during his further marine training program. We call forth his success and safety during the remaining time of his service. Father, bless this servant, Ben, and cover him with your guidance and hand. Help him to fulfill all the assignments you have for him. Help him to complete the divine Plan you ordained for him from the Beginning. Neutralize all opposition to his Path.

Father, we ask that you grant Andy at Annapolis the grace and illumination to fulfill his engineering studies in honor and victory according to his highest and best abilities. Bless him particularly in his English and physics. Assign to him angels of illumination to guide him during his study preparations.

We celebrate, Father, the return of pilot LTC Andrew to his family. We share in the joy of his first meeting with that new son. Father, surround this precious family with your grace and guidance as they make their move to another location. Help them settle in rapidly and harmoniously. May they find the special friends you have placed there for them. Bless this and all our military families who sacrifice so much for all of us.

We place on your altar our concerns for Marine Keith and his family. Father, surround Keith during his remaining days in Iraq with one of our prayer blankets. We call for his safety and the ability to fulfill all his missions victoriously. We are grateful for his service and willingness to fight for Freedom for that nation and for the protection of this one. Let there be special angels assigned to Keith to guide, guard, direct and protect him. We call for your blessing, healing, comfort, and strengthening of Keith's family, especially his wife, who is bearing a huge burden of responsibility. We call for the perfect healing of the 8 year old's leg infection. We ask that you will grant Keith's wife a whole TEAM of angels to help her with the full hands she has with that brood of 3 youngsters. We ask that you will bring to her tangible help in whatever form you may choose, whether it is a new friend, a neighbor who is called by you to help with baby sitting, or whoever you may have in mind to help her with whatever tasks are the need of the hour.

We call this forth for all the military spouses who are left to keep the homefires burning, raise the youngsters, and keep things on an even keel while their loved one is serving abroad. Father, we hear of the stresses on our military families, and know that some succumb to those stresses. Father, let not anymore of our military families founder or drown in those waters of stress heaped upon them. Please take a portion of love from our hearts to weave into a special garment of support for each of our military families. Father, help us as a nation and people be mindful of the sacrifices of these military families, and help us find a way to make it a priority to support them. God bless them all, and keep them all safe and secure in the bonds of love and commitment which they have formed by your grace. Above all, let our prayers be adjusted and made pure and holy according to your Will.

Amen

That reminds me I have been very lax in reporting on my prayer request submittals.

Freeper bkwells and the entire Tarawa crew are home and in San Diego now and Freeper DesertDog aka Karl son of freeper beallyoucanbe is home now also.

And of course Radix's son is home now too as you already knew but he was on my list also. Some of them I have no idea about but trust they are in good care.

Thank you all for all your prayers, may they continue to stay safe even as they are home now.

Thanks Texokie for all you do.

Prayer bump!

My cousin, Steve Jr. has come home to stay.

I asked him what he thought of the effort
in Iraq after coming home after 9 months
overseas.

He said, we've done the right thing.
The people of Iraq loved the soldiers
and cheered whereever they went.

Yes, there were the few loose cannons on
the Iraqi side, but he didn't see this as
the majority view.

May God bless and keep
those soldiers and freedom fighters
still fighting the good fight in Iraq!
