Amen to that! Father, I asked that You would put a hedge of protection around Sharon's brother. Keep him and his whole unit safe from enemy attack. May he return safely from his time in the military. I pray blessing upon him. In Jesus' Name, Amen :amen:

I do pray for the people of Iraq and Afganistan for they did not ask for the tyranny and fear they are forced to live with.
I posted this thread for my brother because he is there against his will; he is fighting a war he does not believe in and has already been injured by insergents in Basra. He has a young wife and a 2 year old son and I fear for his safety.
We all want this war to be over as soon as possible so our boys can come home and the Iraqy people can re build their country and their lives.

I am a little offended by the previous post.
I asked for a prayer for my brother please do not try to undermine the job our boys are doing there; and do not try to make me feel guilty about the plight of those there. I do feel for them but that was not what my post was about.
I will pray for the serenity to forgive you for what I feel was offensive.

I'm sorry MLH thought was so disrespectful of your prayer request. I am the one who reported his post. This is NOT the place to make one feel guilty, or as if they need to defend their loved ones.
I will be praying for your brother, Sharon. As well as for you, his whole family, and most especially for his wife and child who must be fearful and missing him terribly.
Please let us know if you need any further prayers for your brother, or his family -- like if you feel especially worried or something like that (not like he's not on my prayer list already now! ;) )
Also, please don't let MLH's rudeness get in the way of asking for prayers for your brother who definitely deserves to be respected and prayed for!

I felt very guilty about my reaction to MHL's post. I'm sure it was meant well but I still feel it was innapropriate.

I am sorry for what I posted Sharon, it was disrespectful of me and I have no excuse. I am against the war but I do support the troops because they need it. My cousin is in Iraq and my closest friend died in Iraq so I sometimes vent my frustration, but this was neither the proper place to do so, I am sorry.

Sharon's Brother-O Lord Jesus Christ our God, the true and living way, be thou, O Master, companion to Sharon's brother, guide and guardian during his deployment in Iraq; deliver and protect him from all danger, misfortune and temptation; that being so defended by Thy divine power, he may have a peaceful and successful journey and arrive safely home to his young wife and 2Yr old son. For in thee he puts his trust and hope, and to thee, together with thy Eternal Father, and the All-Holy Spirit, we ascribe all praise, honor and glory: now and ever, and unto ages of ages.
Sharon's Sister-in-Law-The Father is my hope; the Son is my refuge; the Holy Spirit is my protector. O All-Holy Trinity, glory to thee.Protect and keep in peace this beloved wife of a brave soldier. Help her to accomplish all the tasks at hand be it raising her son or helping others so thather mind is not overwhelemed with worry. For who can add another hour to our life by worrying. Keep her in perfect peace and reunite this family soon. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit
Sharon's little Nephew-O God, our heavenly Father, who lovest mankind, and art most merciful and compassionate, have mercy upon this little boy for whom I humbly pray thee, and commend to thy gracious care and protection. Be thou, O God, his guide and guardian in all he does, lead him in the path of thy truth, and draw him nearer to thee, that he may lead a Godly and Righteous life in thy love and fear; doing thy will in all things. Give him grace that he may be temperate, industrious, diligent, devout and charitable. Defend him against the assaults of the enemy, and grant him wisdom and strength to resist all temptation and corruption of this life; and direct him in the way of salvation, through the merits of thy Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, and the intercessions of his Holy Mother and thy blessed saints.
