I don't know what it is but everytime I see a tribute for the military or hear a song or pray for those in the military I feel like my heart is breaking and I want to cry. What is that Lord?
I currently live a few miles from a giant military base and come in contact with children with parents in the military everyday. I feel like I am here in this city for a purpose and maybe the Lord is convicting me to do something for those AMAZING men and women that help protect us everyday! I don't know - that is why I need the Lord to guide me.
When I see our men and women walking around in uniform at Wal-Mart or picking up their kids from school or just out and about, I feel a strong urge to tahnk them and give them a hug! Now, if you know me at all, you know that I would never approach any of these people because that would be SUPER awkward and weird. Instead of a hug, I send up a prayer to the Lord that wherever they go, they are under His guidance and protection!
What is my point in writing this? I don't really know - just that this has been on my heart for a while but I have no idea what to do with it. If anyone knows a good Bible verse that I could use to pray for this conviction (or whatever it is) please send it my way! Also, I would love to find a way to help out the men and women that protect us a few miles away or thousands of miles away so if you know of anything, PLEASE let me know!
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
