You and your sister have certainly readied yourselves to step into the gap to meet the needs of your children.
May it please God to defend and protect the neice and nephew in their deployment, to comfort and encourage the children left behind and your own daughter as she undergoes a surgery, and may God be pleased to give you and your sister both strength and wisdom to care for these family members well, and to do so with the spiritual and real joy of the Lord.
Keep us posted. Rita.
And may it be, Merciful Father, that Your love and mercy will reunite this family after successful, and protected, tours of duty; that strength and health and healing will come to those in need; and that those caring for loved ones will experience joy and peace and comfort unto the day when all have gathered together again.
In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, may it be so, O Lord, may it be so. Amen and Amen
