Prayer Request for my deployed husband (Iraq)

Posted on 07/07/2008 8:51:12 PM PDT by PERKY2004

My wonderful husband (Ron) is in his last week of his fourth tour in Iraq with the USAF (he's a pilot with a special ops unit.) For some reason, I've just been very anxious / sleepless the last few nights worrying about his safety ... he is scheduled to come home in a week, by the way.

* Please pray for his continued safety, for successful missions, and for his timely and hassle-free "out processing" * Please pray for his travel home, including connections and layovers. (He should be on military transport until he reaches the US East Coast, then catches commercial flights home to California.) * Please pray for my peace of mind, anxiety and worry. (I am prone to panic attacks)

And can I say that my wonderful DH is a strong man of God who is in his 25th year of military service? And that I am soooo looking forward to his homecoming?

Heavenly Father, it is with grateful hearts that we lift up Your children before the Throne of Grace ... grant unto Ron and Molly the most joyful reunion as all of us welcome him home. We thank You, Lord, for these two, who have expended a lifetime in service to our beloved country. Thank You for Your every provision for them throughout these years, and thank You that You will continue to do so, such is Your love. Grant unto them every good and perfect gift as they celebrate their love for each other, and for You.

In the Name of Jesus, we thank You, Amen ...

May God watch over Ron and keep him safe. May He build a hedge of protection around him and bring him safely home. May He give you both peace and strength to endure these last harrowing days, in Jesus' name.

TUESDAY JULY 8 — UPDATE

My wonderful DH just emailed me to proudly announced that he’d killed his first camel spider. After Googling to see just what a “camel spider” is, let me just say “EEEEEEEEK!” Apparently they CHASE YOU because they want to “rest in your shadow.” (I would seriously have a heart attack if chased by a giant creepy sand spidery thing ... Google at your own risk!)

He also reported that the paperwork had just been submitted for him to receive TWO combat medals (for 20 combat sorties, each ... 40 in all).... for THIS visit to “summer camp.” (What he calls it.)

Thanks for praying, MOLLY
