I was on FB just a few moments ago and came across the video below. Regardless of what your political views or thoughts on war may be I hope that you take the time to view this. Leann Rimes does a beautiful job singing Amazing Grace.
I feel that sometimes as Americans we can be somewhat disconnected at times. We watch the evening news and see what's happening around the world but may not experience the depth of it unless it touches close to home through the loss of a loved one. Our military, past and present, have chosen to make a difference in the lives of others all around the world. They have given of themselves and left their families at home to make a difference. Think about it if your spouse was away for long periods of time missing the daily life of watching their children grow up and for their marriage relationship to flourish. That's a sacrifice. Then if they don't get to come home again??? That's a sacrifice.
Please say a prayer for the past and present service men and women and their families. Look around at your family today and be thankful that you can be together as a family because of the sacrifice of others. If you know someone in the military, call them and let them know you appreciate them. My father served in the Air Force in Korea during peace time in the 60's prior to getting married and having a family. He's a wonderful man and I am so blessed to have him as a father! I love you dad!
Go hug on your family now!
