Today has been a rough day. That is pretty much the only thing I can say about it right now. It has just been rough.... Maybe really hard might be a better way to describe it. There isn't much I can/want to write about right now, so I am going to share an Army wife prayer that was shared with me by a fellow Army wife. It is my prayer for the night. It has been a rough day, and I need to keep praying to God for help and for serenity in this life that we have chosen. I cannot be strong all the time, that much I know, but it is in the times of not only weakness but also strength that I need to lean on God to be my strength.
"The Army Wife Prayer"
Dear Lord, Give me the greatness of heart to see the difference between duty and his love for me.
Give me understanding that I may know, when duty calls him he must go.
Give me a task to do each day, to fill the time when he's away.
And Lord, when he's in a foreign land, keep him safe in your loving hand.
And Lord, when duty is in the field, please protect him and be his shield.
And Lord, when deployment is so long, please stay with me and keep me strong. Amen."
