Back into Action

Two weeks ago today, I posted that we had gone to greet soldiers coming home from Iraq. I'm posting their pictures again today as a reminder that those tired but happy faces we saw arriving that day are the same ones heading back into action this week.

We're heading into the next few weeks of 9-11 remembrances. In the midst of it, I'm going to be praying for these soldiers and all those with them who remember it every day. I'm praying for their families and loved ones who are saying good-bye once again. May the God who multiplied loaves and fish make the two short weeks they shared with their families and the well-deserved rest they had...enough. And may He hold all of them in the palm of His hand.
