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."

As the self is cleansed of its false attachments, the Holy Spirit will set up shop. We will lose our old ways, but gain something new - the fruits of the Spirit such as joy, peace and patience. God will have begun to do serious work through us.

Many people don't think they are loved, or held safe, and so when suffering comes they see it as an affirmation of their worthlessness. The great question of ministry and the spiritual life is to learn to live our brokenness under the blessing and not the curse.

I was just thinking how happy we must have made our Heavenly Father this morning, praying AND singing - we had a real worship time together.  I can picture Christ sitting on the edge of heaven watching us and smiling.

Thank you for being such wonderful sisters in Christ & fellow Navy Moms!  I'm also sooo proud of my son for making POM (Petty Officer of the Month) for March.  He's been working so hard!!  It gave him a huge boost.

Yes, we adopt a group a month, and are working on the Japan groups as extras right now.

NYPD Mom & Blondie, I too was singing with you today!

Praying with and for you all.  Glad to hear progress for Tim and his meningitis.

Blondie, Thank you for singing along with me this morning.

Praising the update on Tim.  He has been on our church prayer list.

Praising the move to add more room to our church for our youth.

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on April 2, 2011 at 8:14am

Just got word that our young marine, Tim, is recovering from his fight with meningitis!

"Praise God from Whom all blessings flow! 

Praise Him, all creatures here below;

Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost!"          Amen.

Blondie--I have been shipping tuna fish, peanut butter and jerky.  Sounds like a box is emptied as soon as it arrives.  This is on top of my monthly shipments through Molly's Adopt a Sailor and Special Hugs to a MASH unit. 

So, we all continue to pray for generosity of our country, friends and family--and for shipping cost donations.
