Array ( [sid] => 109120 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Prayer [time] => 2005-11-05 07:52:25 [hometext] => Just a poetic prayer i wrote out well i was over here in Iraq comment if you have the time....Steve [bodytext] =>
Freedom from life
But lost from within
A soldier is fighting
But will he win

Strength and courage
Dedication and trust
Lord set me free
From a life of distrust

I fight each day
For my life's gone astray
I need you my Lord
To help find my way

Questions flood
With emotions untrue
Why turn my back
And walk out on You

Strengthen my feet
So I can walk in Your ways
Strengthen my voice
So Your love I'll proclaim

I read Your word
To strengthen my soul
To prepare for this battle
That consumes every soul

Give me Your strength
So we can walk hand in hand
Help me to grow Lord
To be an honorable man

HI sTEVE,
i FEEL HONERED JUST READING THIS
opps my putor is acting up.
Everyone should have time for u as if it weren't 4 u w'ed probably have much more 911 etc.
We all have mixed feelings 'bout war-n-life but I gotta tell ya I feel more safe just knowing we have men like u doing all u can day-n-nite so we can live. My son was milatary as his father before him, back to Vietnam and My Dad's brother's in the second world war.
I have much respect for each-n-every soilder down thru the ages.
God will grant u your heart's desire as u r a soilder in his army.
Big huggs, much thanks, many prayers,
emy
Thank u so much for honering this sight with your humble prayers
