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."

Comment by Blondie on November 29, 2018 at 10:40am: I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world.- John 16:33

In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness ; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words -Romans 8:26

Comment by Blondie on November 29, 2018 at 10:35am: I will listen to what God the Lord will say; he promises peace to his people, his saints . . . Psalm 85:8

Lord, I want to experience the true peace that comes from knowing you. I look forward to spending more time with you today, Father

Comment by Navymom2 on November 28, 2018 at 11:41am: Amen Sister. I love this! Yes, we rest in the LORD for HE his good, faithful and so merciful...

Comment by Blondie on November 28, 2018 at 10:28am: I AM THE WAY AND THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.
“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).

I AM FOREVER FAITHFUL.
“He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them — he remains faithful forever” (Psalm 146:6, NIV).

I AM WITH YOU.
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10, NIV).

I AM HOLDING YOU.
“Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand” (Psalm 73:23, NIV).

I AM YOUR HIDING PLACE.
“You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance” (Psalm 32:7, NIV).

But how thankful I am for the Great I AM. The One who will absolutely “Guide me in [His] truth and teach me” (Psalm 25:5a, NIV).

Psalm 25:5, “Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.” (NIV)

Dear Lord, You are I AM, I’m-Possible. You are the Way, the Truth and the Life, and You are forever faithful. Thank You for being with me always, holding me close and being my hiding place. Help me lean on these truths when the news I receive feels impossible. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Comment by Blondie on November 28, 2018 at 9:43am: “Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.” James 1:19 (NLT)

Ephesians 4:26-27, “And ‘don’t sin by letting anger control you.’ Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil.” (NLT)

Hmm, do I really listen? or do I hear and respond? Do I guard my words as not to hurt? What is anger? what about frustration and no Patience? I might not be mad at someone but loos patience, or get frustrated cause they're not going as fast as I'd like or see/hear things different then I do???? things to think about.

Comment by Blondie on November 27, 2018 at 9:26am: 3 John 2, “Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.” (NIV)
