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."

Carol, that's wonderful news. We will continue to pray until he's out of the woods! Lord thank you for touching Baby Noah and thank you for being with his young parents. Bless them Lord, touch their lives and calm their hearts. Continue to strengthen Baby Noah's body and we WILL give YOU the praise, in Jesus' name...AMEN!

Blondie, so glad to hear that your health is improving, will continue to pray for you and for your daughter. Counting our blessings does renew the soul!
I have more good news to share, my son has arrived at his new place in the "sandbox". He is safe, praise the Lord. He may also be able to start emailing, that sure would be a huge blessing to this mom's heart! Thank you all for your continued love and support. I pray for your all each and everyday!
Hugs and love! Bugsmom

Don't know how many of you heard songs in church today that reminded you of fathers, brothers, sons. Lots of tears, but lots of great memories.
Dear God,
Thank you so much for the memories we hold in our heart till we meet in heaven. You hold such great promise for us! How can we remain sad? For these are the people who will meet us in heaven! Praises to you for all you have given us.
Amen

Blondie, praying for your health to improve. May the Lord bless you and strengthen you body. Also praying that your daughter doesn't get caught in the middle of this power struggle. The stress has to be so intense, jealousy is an ugly thing and satan loves to use it when he can! I pray that the Lord will give them a peaceful calming and a safe voyage. Hopefully now that you've gotten some of that off your chest, you can get the rest your body needs. God bless you and your daughter. Hugs to you all!
By the way my father and brother built ramps yesterday so that Matt would not be confined to one room in their house. He can now maneuver up and out of the living room, where his hospital bed has been set up, and out on to the porch and absolutely loves getting the fresh air! Thank you all for your continued prayers and support.

Blondie, I definitely will be praying for you and your daughter. Know how hard it is to stay true to the Lord when you don't have support from those who are around you. God bless you both.

Bugsmom, so relieved to hear that Matt is now home and comfortable as can be expected. I'm so very sure his mother is beyond relieved. Thank God that he is able to come home to recuperate. Still praying for you, Matt and the family. Praise God!

Good Morning all, afternoon if you aren't on the west coast! I got a text late last night that my nephew arrived home safe and is settling in well. They delivered his hospital bed and wheelchair well in advance, so he is all set! My sister in law is beaming with excitement at having her little boy home! The Lord has brought this amazing young man through so much already, we are confident that he will continue to improve and make a full recovery. Thank you all for your continued prayer for Matt and my family, we so very much appreciate you all!
God bless, I will keep you posted~ My prayers for all who need it today, the Lord knows your needs and hears what is in your heart.
