Prayer Request

We are asking everyone to say a prayer for "Darkhorse" 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families They are fighting it out in Afghanistan & they have lost 9 marines in 4 days. IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE the message spread if more could pass it on. Nothing in the media about these guys because no one seems to care:

Justin Allen, 23, Brett Linley, 29, Matthew Weikert, 29, Justus Bartett, 27, Dave Santos, 21, Chase Stanley, 21 Jesse Reed, 26, Matthew Johnson, 21, Zachary Fisher, 24, Brandon King, 23, Christopher Goeke, 23, Sheldon Tate, 27.

All are Marines that gave their lives for YOU this week. Please Honor THEM by forwarding this.

A SOLDIERS PRAYER

Brave warriors,
should fate find us in battle,
May our cause be just.
May our leaders have clear vision.
May our courage not falter.
May we be triumphant an earn victory
as we show mercy to our enemies.
May our efforts bring lasting peace.
May our sacrifice be always
appreciated by those we serve.
May we return to our loved ones unharmed.
Should we be harmed, may our wounds heal.
Should we perish in the struggle,
may God embrace us and find for us
a place in His Kingdom.

Psalm 91

9 Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
10 No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
12 In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

Lord, we seek the protection of Psalm 91 over all those who serve in the cause of liberty and freedom. Look with favor on the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines. Comfort the families of those who have fallen and encourage those who continue the fight. We praise You for the coming day when the weapons of war will be no more.

In the Name of Jesus, we pray for that day ... Amen ...

Prayers sent for each fallen brave soldier, and for their Battalion.

I have a Marine in my family now too.

He just finished boot camp in November.

His brother is now at a Navy base doing his boot camp.

We are so proud of them.

They are my cousin’s sons.

Prayers up ...... for the fallen and their families and those still fighting.

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13)

From ‘What Grace Is Mine’:
So I will go wherever He is calling me
I lose my life to find my life in Him
I give my all to gain the hope that never dies
I bow my heart, take up my cross and follow Him

What grace is mine to know His breath alive in me
Beneath his wings my wakened soul may soar
All fear can flee for death’s dark night is overcome
My Saviour lives and reigns forevermore

Apologies to the FReepers. I just received it in email today and don’t recall having seen it. How did you locate it? Keywords?
(Prayers for our military are a good idea any time. Not to excuse my blunder, though.)
