Off to basic
A friend of mine leaves for basic training on Monday. He'll be gone for seven months. Pray for his safety, he'll be special forces. Also, a cousin of mine may or may not be coming home from Iraq (he's been there a year) depending on the elections go and he has a wife and two little boys, 3 and 1, waiting for him.

I will most definitely pray. ^__^
[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE
You see into the deepest part of me ---
beyond the fog I hide behind.
You cast your light upon the shadows
that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.
You ease the pain when I am hurting,
and morbid visions from my past
pierce into the realm of Reason
as though I danced on blades of glass.
You grant me strength when I have fallen
and, once again, I've lost my way.
You take my hand in Yours and lead me
into the promise of a brand new day.
You bring order to all my chaos,
yet set my well-laid plans awry.
You place me on a firm foundation ---
then give me wings so I can fly.
You sand away my roughened edges
and polish all the dullest parts
until I stand before Your presence...
a newly-sculpted work of art.
You see into the heart within me,
right through my motives and selfish will.
And yet, in spite of all You see
You say You love me even still.

I will add them to my "Christian Soldiers in Iraq" list ^__^

If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things."

Yeah a bud of mine just left last night just in time for the elections...goody goody. He's got two little girls. That's four guys I know over there right now and I pray for them everyday. I'll pray for your friend as I do for all of our servicemen and women.
