Today I am thankful for our military and their families. Over the last five years, I have watched many of our congregation be deployed and leave their families behind for short term (3 months) to long term (over a year). I've watched the spouses keep the family unit together and continue through the everyday routine. I've prayed with them and tried to share in their struggle. Yet, I'll never truly know what a military spouse goes through during a deployment. So I tip my hat to the spouses of those who serve our country. Thank you for sharing your loved one with us. Thank you for your faithfulness to your loved one and carrying on in their place while they serve. Thank you to the service men and women who sacrifice time with their loved ones to serve our country. May you and your families be blessed by God for your servant's heart!
