As Veteran’s Day is upon us in less than a half hour, I’m thinking of my brother Nick as he is overseas. My prayers and thoughts are with him and his family. I just got to talk to him for a few minutes and he is so ready to be home with his family and friends. He loves his job, serving our country but misses his family. I am so proud of him and the man he’s become. The sacrifices that soldiers and families make astound me and I just want to say thank you to all that have served, are serving and are going to serve. May we all be grateful and supportive to those that give up so much in order for our country to be protected and free. May God pour his blessings upon you and your families!! Love you Nick and I can’t wait to see you on your leave in December!!
I heard this song awhile ago and it’s a great reminder that this world would not be the same without the sacrifices of not only soldiers but also the pain and suffering that Jesus went through for each and every one of us.
There’s only two people who’s ever died for me
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
They both went through hell, bared crosses and shells
To me they’re both heroes for the path that they chose
One fights for my life, one fights for my soul
…God only knows where we’d be without soldiers and Jesus
