My wonderful husband (Ron) is in his last week of his fourth tour in Iraq with the USAF (he's a pilot with a special ops unit.) For some reason, I've just been very anxious / sleepless the last few nights worrying about his safety ... he is scheduled to come home in a week, by the way.
* Please pray for his continued safety, for successful missions, and for his timely and hassle-free "out processing" * Please pray for his travel home, including connections and layovers. (He should be on military transport until he reaches the US East Coast, then catches commercial flights home to California.) * Please pray for my peace of mind, anxiety and worry. (I am prone to panic attacks)
And can I say that my wonderful DH is a strong man of God who is in his 25th year of military service? And that I am soooo looking forward to his homecoming?

Dear Lord in Heaven, please watch over Ron as he fulfills his last few days in theater, bring him home safely to his family, and grant them peace with this homecoming. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Molly, you’re a special lady - a military wife - I ask God’s special blessings on you, too. Hang in there...
Prayers up for your good husband. Four tours? God Bless him and Keep him until he returns to your loving arms.
FReepers, please ping your prayer warriors.
Dear Molly, I am happy to pray for your husband, Ron, to come home safely from his deployment. Remember breathing exercises so you don’t go into panic attack and try to keep busy. God Bless you both.
Prayers up, of course. God bless both of you.
Prayers for Ron and family.
Please God bring Ron home safe and sound to his family. Thanks to Ron also for his over and above service to his and our country. He is a real hero PERKY2004 and we know you are very proud of him. We are too and we hope you have a marvelous homecoming. God bless him and all our military and our military wives and families. There’s nothing like them.
Prayers going up for Ron, and for you Molly...
May you feel the comfort & strength of the Lord as you wait for your husband to come home.
God bless...
Matthew 10:27
Prayers for your family!
God bless him Ma’am we are all in his debt. I’ll be proud to pray for him.
We pray for the safety of Ron and all our troops, and for the success of their mission. Dear God, please bring them safely home to us.
Prayers up ..... He will be home shortly and you make sure he stays there now (4 Iraq tours and 25yrs) ..... !
Prayers up, Molly. God Bless you both.
God bless your husband and all our brave warriors. My thanks to your American patriot for serving his country in order to keep us free. I will be praying for his safe return.

Heavenly Father, shine your light upon Ron and Molly in their hour of need. Please bring Ron home safely to his loving family, and show him a heroes welcome. I pray this in Jesus' name. Amen!
Thank your husband for us and thank you Molly for your own personal sacrifice for our freedom. I hope that for each day you have been separated from your hero husband that you are blessed with 100 fold more days of being in each other's arms. You are both American heroes; may God bless you both and know that you have the gratitude of this thankful American and my children.
Prayers up!
And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.- Isaiah 65:24

Praying for Molly and Ron.
Done and God bless you and your husband.
Thanks so much for your kind words, encouragement, and heartfelt prayers.
I will, of course, let you know when he is safely home.
Ya BETTER! :) :) We want a REPORT!
Prayers for his safe and speedy return home. And more gratitude and thanks than I can express for what he has done for us.
OH MOLLY!
God bless you for ASKING!
We’re here..
We’re praying...
KEEP US UPDATED!
A humble Prayer to bring him home safe...
Prayer BUMP
I can truly relate to how you’re feeling right now, PERKY2004. Prayers up for your husband, Ron, and for you too. :)
Prayers for your dear husband’s safe return to your loving arms. Hang in there, just a while longer.
Personally I don’t care where he is or what kind of person he is. I will pray for him, I will pray for all Iraqi and Afghanistan soldiers to come home safely. I will pray extra hard for your husband.
Saying prayers for him. God Bless:) And please thank him for me too:)
I rather hope it begins and ends with, "They went into the bedroom and closed the door."
My husband was in the Navy, you know...
:)
This is California in the midst of a heat wave (112 here tomorrow) ... so it will probably mention our swimming pool!
:: blushing ::
Prayers for you and yours love, I have anxiety too and it is miserable. Thank you so much for your sacrifice. I am in awe of you and your husband.
Hello, Molly....Hang in there. There are plenty of US out there who care deeply about those that travel off to foreign lands and go in harms way so that we can live freely. Please pass on my thanks and well wishes to your hubby.
And, a very mighty thanks to you too. You contribute to our military efforts in a unique, but no less important way. Know that my thoughts and prayers will be with you also.
Perky...
Don’t let him stay in! Take him home and love him.
He’s done more than enough for his country!
Absolutely............Prayers up
I'm heading back over there in a couple of days...(sigh...)
Prayers going up for your family. In the meantime, Molly, know that your brave husband has the prayers of untold numbers, and that he is in God’s hands—the best postition to be in always.
Just rest in Him and trust in Him, and we will continue to pray blessings for your family.
I consider it an honor to pray for those who serve our country so selflessly, that includes not only your husband, but his family (YOU!) as well. Thank you!
Praying for protection & safety for Ron as he begins his journey back home, also praying for you for peace & strength. God bless you both and Thank-You, Ron, for your service to our country!!
Prayers for Ron and for you. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
Prayers for your husband. Tell him we appreciate his service and hope he makes it home safely.
Hi - will pray for hubby’s safe return.
BTW it’s quite normal to get more anxious the closer the time is to his return. It seems like all the concerns are somehow compressed and focused into this smaller space of time.
Don’t let yourself become a prophet of doom though and speak words of faith towards his return.
Prayers on the way!
You got it. I am confident he will come home safely. But, I will pass it along to the Big Guy...
Lord, bring Ron home safely. Bring all our troops home safely in good time. We pray for peace through victory, that our troops will not have died in vain. Amen.
And Lord, please heal and save our wounded. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Mighty Ping for a safe return for your Husband and Airman. May God make sure he is kept safe. Amen
