OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Father in Heaven, help this young man and his mother carry their crosses. May they never feel alone. We lift them up to you as we give you Glory and Praise. Amen

Miso, We are Blessed to have you with us. What a GREAT example you are being. Thank you for helping this young man, and bringing their cares to our attention. You will receive your great reward one day in Heaven. God's blessings upon you and your family.

Comment by Jesusintheboat on March 12, 2018 at 9:51pm: i will keep both of your requests , Blondie and Miso123 , in prayer

Comment by Miso123 on March 12, 2018 at 7:57pm: I most certainly will Blondie keep her and her family in my prayers I’m also on this other group on Facebook and there is a SR who is at BC and his mother has brain cancer so sad and terrible I am writing to him once a week until he has his PIR date hopefully will keep in touch with him after that if you can kindly keep his mom and him in your prayers . Thank you God bless

Comment by Blondie on March 12, 2018 at 7:31pm: Set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12

Dear Jesus, I look to you as my perfect role model and holy example. Keep me mindful that others see you by what I do and say. Many people who don’t know God base their understanding of the gospel on what they see in our lives. What a privilege it is to represent the love of God and truth of Christ to those around us. Be with us Lord in all we do and say. May we always represent you to the best of our ability and lead others to your Truth and Love. Through Christ Your Son, Amen

Comment by Blondie on March 12, 2018 at 7:24pm: Thank you Miso.

One of our Navy Moms (from another group) Lost her husband to Cancer. Please keep Maggs and her family close to your heart and in your prayers. Thank You.

Comment by Miso123 on March 10, 2018 at 12:03pm: BlondieAmen! Have a blessed day!

Comment by Blondie on March 10, 2018 at 11:58am: he Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him. Nahum 1:7

During the storms of life, God wants to cover us. When we run to him, we can experience his care and compassion, a safe shelter from all the harsh words, hurtful actions, and hateful harassment of a bad day. Like warming before a fireplace after getting soaked by the rain, we can experience the renewed energy to venture out again the next day.

Regardless of the kind of weather you experience today, God is there for you.

Pray: “I want to trust you completely, Lord, and to take refuge in the shelter of your goodness. Thank you for protecting me from any storms I may face today.”

Comment by Blondie on March 8, 2018 at 2:13pm: And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.
Mark 8:34 (NASB)

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons . . . nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38–39

This is what the Lord says, “. . . you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you . . .”Isaiah 43:1, 4

Father, your love for me is amazing. Through your Word, remind me that your love is unconditional and that your grace is limitless. Be with me Lord. Amen

Comment by Blondie on March 8, 2018 at 2:09pm: AMEN.

Feeling the Love here, just reading. I'm so glad we are Blessed with this group and you fine ladies.

Comment by outi on March 8, 2018 at 10:57am: For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand saying to you, Do not fear; I will help you. Isaiah 41:13 In our moments of hardship , my prayer is that we will remember this!
