Soldiers

Lady of Light

We are told in scripture to be "soldiers for Christ" but on this Memorial Day weekend,
we need to remember our earthly soldiers in the United States who gave their lives and fought for our country. The freedom we have to worship God, read the bible and to be Christians is definitely related to the determination of our founding fathers and all of the many soldiers who have protected our country.

I would like to share a poem I wrote:

SOLDIERS
You leave your friends, your loved ones
And your families behind,
No one could possibly imagine
The things that go through your mind.

As you are continuously making sacrifices
To defend your country
Folks back home, living safe and happy lives,
While you are out there, perhaps in the front line,
Hoping and praying that everything will be fine.

God will give you your reward some day,
In the meanwhile I can pray for you,
your families, and all whom you love,
will be held forever in the everlasting arms
Of our great God above.

Remember all the soldiers who have fought and died for our country.

God bless you and have a great day!
Lady of Light
