(5/27/19)
Lord, My words are small in comparison to the heart of a hero. To say Thank You to those who serve our country feels so minimal to the depth of the words.
I am from a line of American heroes; I married into a family of the same. American blood runs deep in our veins, and today I sit in the embrace of their love for America.
Lord, I pray you will hold the hearts of those who grieve the death of a Hero. Lord, I pray you will wrap your arms around those who are attempting to breath, to function, to live without the presence of their person by their side. Lord, I pray you will reign your arms of protection around our heroes who are serving on our soil and world-wide.
And, Lord, I pray you will fill the hearts of our veterans with Peace and Surety. Speak accomplishment and purpose into their minds. Steady their gaze on the truth of who they are, for they are your creation created to survive, to serve, to proclaim and to shine.
Oh, Lord Jesus, how I love our Heroes! Thank you for lighting a fire in each and every one of them!
