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."

Thank you God for allowing me to talk to my son last night. Even though I know he is going through a difficult time right now, he is keeping his spirits up and doing good. Thank you for keeping him safe and positive. Also, thank you for this day and allowing me to do the work that I am doing for the people who I am working for. In Your loving and precious name I pray, Jesus...Amen

Merciful and loving Lord, the events of this week are too large and too many and we are exhausted from watching the news. Keep our sons and daughters safe today, keep them close, and wise and together doing your good work in a hostile world and in dangerous places.

Keep their families, girlfriends and boyfriends patient and kind and stayed on you as they worry about them.

Keep us the parents in perfect peace as we reach out to one another for the sake of our kids and their duties.

Keep this world from the evil one and guard those who dare to do good.

Watch over us in body and spirit, in heart and mind and keep us close to you today.

This is your day, and we count it for good. We claim your care and ask for peace.

Amen

Comment by Cheryl Proud to be Allen's Mom on March 21, 2011 at 11:18am: Thank you Father God for this day. Allow me to use it to the best of my ability to honor You and do as You want and expect of me. Please watch over, guide and protect our military wherever they are stationed. Hear all of our prayers and comfort those in need. Amen

Comment by Proud Navy/NYPD Mom (Donna) on March 21, 2011 at 10:07am: Almighty God, we claim Your promise to hear our prayers. We thank You that Your answers are already on the way before we ask or even think of them. Lord please take care of our sons and daughters. We know that You love them even more than we do, help us to remember that. We also know that You aren't worried and that all things are under Your control. Help us to remember these things as we go through our day. Thank you for providing Your Son as our way to access Your very throne room. We are thankful and humbled. Bless us this day. In Christ's precious name, Amen.

Comment by KathyMmom on March 21, 2011 at 9:44am: Amen Tesla - thank you Lord for giving us those who have the abiliity to express the prayers of my heart so beautifully.

Comment by tesla was right on March 21, 2011 at 9:27am: Good morning God! We are here and all around the world in our usual places, coming into your presence on behalf of the many.

We give thanks for progress on the crisis at Fukushima, and ask for continued success in stopping the radiation. We pray that it spread no more, and that what is out be identified and shielded from causing more harm.

We give thanks for your continuing care of our sailors who labor long hours in Operation Tomodachi. Please keep them safe.

We give thanks for the good order in voluntary departures of dependents, and ask for traveling mercies for all. Thank you for those who have opened their homes in new places.

We give thanks for this group, who can share needs and worries, and we ask for help with complicated family situations. In middle of all this, each life has a story and some are painful. Please bring your tender loving care to all.

We give thanks for the many ngos as well as local churches and leaders who are now able to help and bring relief to japan. We pray for the Japanese people, especially those affected by this trauma. They have been so honorable and we are touched by their community. Show them your name and nature and protect them from blame or hurt.

We pray for those involved inOperation Odyssey Dawn. Keep them safe and give them wisdom. Please move others in that part of the world to step in and press for change so that the fighting may be brief and lives lost would be few.

There is so much on our hearts, Lord, we need your presence and power. We thank you for the personal peace you give us today and claim it to share.

Amen
