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."

Dear Lord - thank You for being with us and encouraging us each day in our daily lives.  You know the needs and see where we hurt.  Please Lord, be with these precious folks that have listed their prayer requests and their families.  Heal those that are ill and bring them relief, protect those in harm’s way so that they may come home to us, give comfort to the hurting and peace from fear.  Help Angela’s family in their need to return to Texas – clear the way and give them safe travels and new employment opportunities.  Remind Angela how important she is and even though things are difficult, that this shall pass but You never change.  Be with Nicole and reassure her that Your time is better than our time, but more importantly, be with her boyfriend in his healing process.  Make him stronger and more determined than ever to achieve his goals.  Give comfort to Michaels Mom as her son prepares to go to Okinawa.  We moms just miss our kids so much, no matter how proud they make us.  Corpsman get special blessings so please reach into his heart and let him know You are near.  And Lord, I ask you to place your arms around Carol today and prevent her illness from becoming serious.  Give her the rest she needs and heal her lungs.  She brings all of us together in this place of prayer so we ask for Your touch on her today so that she can continue to be a leader.

Thank You for all of the blessing you give us each day!  Praise for Sharon’s sailor at home and the precious time they can spend together.  Thank you for Cheryl and StockdaleMom, allowing them to share their situations with Angela and bring hope.  Thank you for Tchrmom and Kelly for their encouraging words and prayers and scriptures.  Protect us all as we go out into the day and remind us that Your light is the one that shines through us.  Let it shine!  Thank you for loving us, we love You!  Amen.

Scripture to stand on: Ps 31:23,24 Love the Lord all you Godly (Gods little ones) for the Lord protects those who are loyal to Him so be strong and full of courage all you who hope in the Lord

prayer I don't have to worry and I won't be afraid joy comes in the morning bootcamp it won't last always for I've found a friend in Jesus who will wipe my fears away.

So many needs as I log back on.  Dear God, please watch over our prayer partners.  Keep them strong and focused on you.  Keep them upright in faith.  Wrap your loving arms around each of us as we deal with spoken and unspoken requests.

Please watch over my sinus infection so it doesn't go into bronchitis or pneumonia.  The coughing is keeping me up at night when restorative sleep would help heal.  Let there be an opening at the lung specialist to see and guide me through this.  (I cannot be in the hospital again for pneumonia.)

Amen

My son just told recently he will be going to Okinawa in Feb.he is a Corpsman and will be training at the hospital there for a year. I know God has his hands upon him. Please pray for him to draw closer to God when he is away and that he will be a witness. I am so proud of him but, my heart is aching already for him. Thank you

Tchrmom - thank you, it means a lot ! i said the same thing you did, how everything happens for a reason !
Comment by Tchrmom Lisa on January 5, 2011 at 12:36am
Nicole, I will keep your sailor in my prayers.  God orchestrates everything for a reason.
Comment by Tchrmom Lisa on January 5, 2011 at 12:35am

Angela, I will keep you and your family in my prayers, and prayer is very powerful! I have always found the Serenity Prayer to be very clarifying and liberating.

God, grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change, the COURAGE to change the things I can, and the WISDOM to know the difference! D\Simple prayer, but not always easy.

Comment by nicole (ship 12 division 041) on January 5, 2011 at 12:08am
hi everyone - can you please say a prayer for my boyfriend ? my boyfriend is in boot camp & his PIR date is suppose to be 1/14 (next friday) but a couple hours ago his mom told me that he is in the hospital & to call him..... i just got off the phone with him & found out he has pneumonia and was dehydrated this morning to the point where he had his running test today & doesn't really remember anything.... he said he doesn't know if he passed his running test because he can't remember what happened.... this week is really important & hes in the hospital now so he said he might get pushed back :( or he said he might have to be in this program for people who don't pass a test or something.... i'm so upset :/ i was looking forward to next week more than anything & now idk whats going to happen !

@ Angela, I am standing in the gap for you & your family in this difficult time. Praying for you all. I have been in your situation myself & if it wasn't for the people here on N4M prayer wall praying for me I don't think I would have made it. I had toove back to Michigan because of finances & hardship. God will keep you covered in His love & protection. Everyone here is wonderful & caring.
