A Military Wife's Prayer
Lord,
Please give me the strength to see
the difference in duty and his love for me.
Give me the understanding to know
that when duty calls, he must go.
Give me the patience to know in my heart
that he is serving his country and doing his part.
Give me the strength to carry on
when he's working late or must be gone.

Please give me a task to do each day
to fill the time while he is away.
Give me others who can share
the ups and downs and who'll really care.

Give me the wisdom to get me through
when I'm not quite sure of what to do.
And Lord, while our family is at home here
keep us healthy, safe, and full of cheer.

Excellent message. I know it was meant for wives but is also excellent for anyone (like parents) that have their children in the forces.  Thanks for the thoughts and message.
