Prayer for America 10/30/05

God, I want to thank you for the courage and patriotism of the men and women who have served this country in the military. without their skills, without their sacrifices, without their deaths, we might very well have lost the freedoms that make America great. Without these heroes, the United States would be a very different country today.

I praise you, God, for raising up men and women of courage to fight our battles in desperate times and to maintain our defenses in peaceful times. I praise you for working through those people to protect and defend us from enemies of every kind. Help us remember them and honor their sacrifices for us.
