Pray for our troops

One man's desert is another man's oasis "Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt, fertilizer and some grass seeds so he can have the sweet aroma and feel the grass grow beneath his feet. If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of scissors.

Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the little things that we take for granted. Please say a prayer for our soldiers that give (and give up) so unselfishly for us. We should also pray for their families left behind who are also unselfishly giving up not only their family member but in many cases their standard of living while they are away.
