Memorial Day...Soar Like an Eagle



Video link...In Memoriam 0f the Love of My Life...and so many many more Military men and women loved by all of you too




Greater love has no one than this,
that he lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:13



Yes the love of My Life was a Marine, a wonderful Husband and Father and a Preacher of the Word.

I can think of no better day and time to share his love of the Lord and his country with you whom I have come to know out here in eagle land. I spent my time at his grave today remembering all he lived and died for.

Mostly though I live on with the knowledge of the One whom he served until the very end. As his late wife and the mother of his children it remains my/our prayer that you know the Friend of Friends who laid down His life also for you.

God and Country in that order...those values touch the depth of my soul as much today as ever. I spend time each day in gratitude for those who served. I pray for the safe return for those who are away now in service. I pray that America will always remember that God shed His grace on Thee.

These eagles we watch thrive and soar over our land remain a symbol of Courage, Freedom, and the very will to survive!!! This year the eagles have taught me so very much more about the struggle and yet majestic beauty involved in Soaring like an Eagle. It is not an easy life. It is wrought with peril from the nest to the sky. Man has also inflicted its own kind of peril on this majestic creature. America you must continue to always persevere even through tough times.
