God thank you so much!! I was praying and praying and praying that I would get my first letter from my husband today who is in bootcamp. I was trying to have faith in Him that He would answer my prayers, and also faith in my husband that he would write! Well the mail came today and I got 2 letters from him! A total of 5 pages! I couldn't stop crying I was so happy, and crying because I miss him so much. God answers all our prayers and keeps us strong so we can believe in Him. I also had a sign from Him as well today...as I was walking to check the mail (it had not arrived yet), I found a penny on the road. It was God's way of saying, "Its OK, of course you are going to get your letters today!" I love all the signs we see from God every day, we just have to watch and listen for Him. Praying that everyone who is expecting letters will get them soon.
for I know that if i ask anything acording to Gods will (in agreement with His plan or what pleases Him) He hears me and if He hears me I have the potions I desire of Him.
Prayer: Lord I ask You for beaufitul weather on 3-19-11 and traveling mercies and saftey in blodies neck of the woods and i thank You sweet loving heavenly father for answering tropikals prayers in such a loving way you are faithful to your doughters thank you father we love You
Yes, I have heard of this. I know they are doing it for the Catholic version but not sure about any other version. Taking "booty" out and replacing it with "spoils of war" and then a couple of other words that I can't remember.
REPLY TO KatK....The word "booty" according to Strong's Hebrew Word Concordance says: it's "spoil" like they said "spoils" of war...so it may make it a clearer meaning for those not inclined to understand The Bible or that have not studied it more indepth. I love the Old King James also, booty is the King James Word, but it was translated from the Latin when it was first printed....I personally love to use The New American Standard version because it uses the Hebrew (Old Test.) & Greek (New Test.) Words that explain the original meanings from the original language. The only way to really get the correct version is to KNOW Hebrew & Greek! Had it to do over again, I would be a Hebrew and or a Greek Scholar! They say it takes a lifetime to learn it all, but oh my what a blessing that would be to be able to read the original writtings and understand the text! Hope this helps .....
Additional comment from comment below! The "New American Standard" translation of the Bible was translated directly from the Hebrew & Greek Original writtings....see my comment below for the first part of this: >>>
Praise The Lord for my son's Ship 12 Div. 95!!!! They completed their Battlestations 21 for Boot Camp this morning! We give all the Glory to Our Father in Heaven In Jesus Name! We are all so proud of their accomplishments! They all passed and with really good marks my son says! We are so excited now for their PIR on 3/11/11 .....can hardley wait! Pray that they will get some "Good Rest" now!
So happy for Linda's son!! Can't wait till my husband gets to do battlestations!! Thanks again for the support carol, Blondie, and Kelly!! You guys are great, many blessings to you all!! God is good!!
Hi every mom just had to get on to tell everyone about this show coming home on lifetime chanel but be worned its a tear jerker you will need klenex its about military families reuniting
I am here praying for you Angela just as the rest of those who are here who care. Jang in there & know that God will guide & comfort you. God will be your strength.thru all this. God bless you & your whole family. Hugs!
Dear Lord, Please wrap your loving arms around Angela and her family. Help quiet her world to hear the whispers you have for her. Guide her to a church with pastoral guidance. Give her support and help her lean on you. Amen
Angela, standing with you in prayer as well. Father God, I lift up Angela & her whole family to you...shower her in your love. Bind the enemy as he roars around seeking to destroy. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen
Like Blondie said I don't have the answers but having been through difficulties in my own marriage I do know that God will see you through.
Please pray that God would show me clearly whether I am to stay co-leading a Bible study small group or if He is calling me out.
It is a very difficult group & I have no oil of joy in serving.
Navyfam: I took off for 56 weeks from leading a Bible study--it gave an opening to another woman to lead, and that was almost 6 months ago. She is a blessing to our women. I am renewed to help our church in other ways now.
We sang an awesome song yesterday in church and some of the lyrics are: "On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand." Isn't this so comforting, that we have a Solid Rock to stand on when we feel as if we are sinking? To God be the glory, great things He has done. I want to add, that He has yet to do.
Cheryl- God is so good...we had a visiting Pastor from Kenya & a worship leader from there too & we sang a song with the line, " I am under the rock..." it was great & he had everyone dancing in the aisles praising the Lord!
Mary D-yes very blessed. I found the worship song on youtube so I thought I would share! It's a very simply song but such a blessing and this is the worship leader who was at our church....amazing what you can find searching a phrase from the lyrics on the internet!
Navyfam thank you for posting that video i needed it. Hi Angela i will contunue to pray for you my husband and i have been at that point of dispare in our marriage even to the point of divorce that was 2 years ago at the point that i was ready and preparing to leave God got ahold of me and began to speak to me thru the word (I started the one year bible thru my church) everytime a scripture came to my heart i wrote it down on index cards and i would speak the scripture out at the end of the day before i knew it i had 7 diffrent scripture books full of index cards 1 on marriage 1on me persanaly 1on safety for my family 1on on the finaces for my household 1 on healing and miricals 1 on bedtime confessions and the most importent on of all INTAMCY WITH GOD this is one were i tell God just how much He means to me I started my day with this one well its been almost 3 years later and my marriage changed my husband changed but most of all i changed and i got the inner healing i needed desperatly and most of all i sow God deal with is Son (my husband) when i couldnt and all our needs got met thru Gods Love we I saw God answer what was realy needed in and for my marriage and in me. and i will pray that God meets your every need love kelly
I finally heard from my son today and our prayers were heard and he is still in the Nuke program. He was put in the Mil Div (where the Nukes go when they haven't followed the rules and spend their time cleaning) for 45 days, but then he can return to the next Nuke class at the point he was at.
HI Angela the book that change my relationship with God and my whole life is Secrets of the Secret Place by Bob Sorge out of kansas city mo the web site is www.oasishouse.net. I pray you will fall in love with Gods presence like i did.
Praying for my son Allen today he is taking his E5 exam. Lord please give Allen the wisdom & knowledge while taking his E5 exam today. Also, give him calm and peace while taking it also. I pray Lord that he will pass it this time. Your will be done. Thank Father, Amen.
Angela, my DH is working in Cincinnatti right now and he said that the river is expected to crest and flood the lower parts of the city and downstream. I don't know the state, so can't tell you what that means. He said he's in a high area of the city.
Dear Lord I want to thank you for the prayer warriors we have here on this website. I have never met any of them personally, but I feel as ur I know them & am close to many of them. Many have a better ability to say all the prayers the best when all of us feel the need to pray, but don't know how to say our prayers so eloquently. I am coming to you today in thanks for all You have given & done for me and my family. Also, praying for those here in need of Your loving protection, care & strength. Please be with my children who are in need all over the world. You know how difficult & troubling Allen's marriage has been. Please allow him to hear from Jessica so that he can see & talk to his daughter, Maddox. We all miss him & Maddox so much. Praying for Your wisdom & strength for me also. You are a loving & generous God. I have friends & other family members who need You also. Be with them also. Thank you for Your son Jesus Christ. Amen
I am just in awe of how wonderful all of you say your feelings. I am not good at putting things into words. It is very uplifting - thanks for helping me start my day off with prayers.
I have more Navy clothes than I do red so blue is a lot easier for me to wear also. Carol we are so blessed to have this page & each other. I thank God for you all too.
Linda-So glad to hear about your son being able to continue in the Nuke program..I pray he has learned from the situation and that he is thankful for the 2nd chance.
Blondie-Thank you for your beautiful prayers! They are so uplifting. And the beautiful pictures you post.
Cheryl-your prayer was beautiful too...so eloquent.
Amen ladies. Even when I have no words to express my feelings, troubles, or gratitude, it's always here and I am always uplifted. Thank you God for all these beautiful people that you have gathered in support of each other. (For the record - I switch between red and blue - alternating fridays - just to make sure. :-))

Our thoughts are with the people of Japan. For Navy there, we have no reports of deaths/injuries & recall process is ongoing. No reports of significant damage to installations & no damage to ships. In Guam, USS ships didn't sortie, no evacuations reported & no reports of damage. For Hawaii no U.S. Navy ships sortied, no evacuation of Navy housing areas ordered, & we're closely closely monitoring wave heights.(dw)
I want to ask you to pray for my son & DIL. She is due to deliver any day, but the doctor says nothing is happening. Please pray for a safe delivery and that my little granddaughter will be fine. I have to confess that I am quite concerned about this having been thru a number of stillbirths with overdue babies both when I worked as a nurse and as a pastor's wife. My DIL is Amanda and my son is Matthew and this is their first child. Thank you. Amen
We have so many concerns, Oh Lord. Hear our pleas as we lift up the Japan earthquake victims. Let us be in haste to help. Protect our Western States as they feel the affects from the eathquake and all areas from the tsunami. We are your people, Oh Lord, and we lift up our prayers to you, the Almighty. Amen
Lord, as we watch the news our hearts are heavy and our minds are worried. We see the upheaval in the world around us and wonder what will happen next. Let us be reminded that ALL things are under Your control. All things happen according to Your timing and Your will. We remember that You have said in Your Word that "even the earth groans for Your redemption and return". We pray for all peoples affected by these events and we pray for our sons and daughters who are in harm's way whether it be Afghanistan & Iraq, northern Africa, or Japan. We ask You to watch over them as they are on the seas & land of this world and that You will keep them safe. We look to You for our strength and peace of mind. Lord, You are good and we know everything You do is good. So we look to You for our comfort and strength and we know that You are holding us in the palm of Your right hand. Thank you for that dear Lord. We ask all these things in Your Son's precious name, Amen and amen.
Father, please be with my son as he works at the big accident site in the Bronx today. I ask You to keep him safe. Be with the families who lost loved ones when the bus overturned. Comfort them Father as only You can. Thank You for hearing all our prayers, Amen.
