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."

Amen!

Comment by Blondie on August 21, 2019 at 10:20am: We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8

Lord, help me to love others the way you love me. Allow me to demonstrate your patience, compassion, and mercy to everyone I see today. When I’m tempted to judge others for what they do and condemn them in my heart, help me to show them the mercy and love that you show to me.

Comment by Blondie on August 21, 2019 at 9:46am: Let me understand the teaching of your precepts; then I will meditate on your wonders. Psalm 119:27

Lord, sometimes I try to solve problems without considering what you want me to do. Give me the patience to wait on your timing for the current struggles in my life.

Comment by Blondie on August 20, 2019 at 10:46am: [Jesus said,] “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.” Luke 11:28

For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. Romans 2:13

Dear God, I’m so grateful for your Word and all that you reveal in it. I want to be a doer of your truth and not just a hearer. Help me to obey you in all that I do. Lord, despite my best efforts, I can never live a perfect life. I sin and need your grace each day. Thank you for your gift on the cross that fulfills the law and sets me free.
