A Military Christmas

2000 years ago our Savior came to Earth to lay down His life in sacrifice for us that we might be eternally free. Today, on this day, soldiers are willing to lay down their lives for our freedom also. Please take time this busy Christmas season to remember our troops. Pray for them. In service to our country, they are risking all for our sake.

If you want to, do something simple. You can follow my xerox link to the left and send a thank you card. Or go to redcross.org and sign an email card. Or you can do more by bringing cookies to a military family or to veterans. Or to those who serve here at home, our police and firefighters.

Read about how Bush and Cheney have honored our troops during their administration here. Go to http://oldbluejacket.com/militaryxmas.htm to see a Christmas tribute.





And please also pray for the families left behind. Those whose loved ones are serving this Christmas in lands far away to protect the liberty and freedom we hold so dear, and especially for those who have lost their loved ones. May God pour our His love and comfort upon them.
