Praying for My Husband

Posted in Christian Life, Family, Military Life, and Photography

Project 365 – #234 Last week, I wrote about how I have the perfect husband for me.  One thing that I’ve learned is that having a great husband doesn’t mean that I get to take things for granted.  In fact, I’d say it’s just the opposite.  Because I know how special our relationship is and how important he is to me, I need to guard that relationship by making sure he knows that I’ve got his back and that he knows that I’m covering him in prayer.  It’s not easy to be a Godly man in a fallen world.  Temptation…

Being Prepared to Share the Truth

Posted in Christian Life, Military Life, and Photography

Project 365 – #232 On Friday, D had a rare opportunity to discuss logic and the Bible with someone from work.  Due to some situations that were happening, they had a sit down to talk over various things and somehow the conversation took a turn towards logic, philosophy, and the Bible.  Because of the recent homeschool convention that we attended with Ken Ham and many of our family studies that we’ve been doing, the answers and logic were readily available to him.  Religious conversations in the military workplace have to be handled with caution, so it’s not often that he’s able…

Becoming friends with D back in junior high would change my life (for the better) forever.  Even then, he was gung ho Marine Corps.  He loved the idea of serving his country as a Marine.  He and…

Honor, Courage, Commitment: Memorial Day 2011

Posted in Military Life

Project 365 – #150 Today, we set aside a day to honor the courage, commitment, and sacrifice of our fallen military members.  Very few families have not been touched in some way by the wars that have been fought by our military.  Our nation was born from the sacrifices made by many men and women who believed in freedom and were willing to fight to make our country free. May we never forget these ultimate sacrifices or take our freedom for granted. May we continue to fight to keep our nation free.  Growing complacent sets us up for failure…. May…
