Letters from War

Not sure why I've thought about it more today than other days, but I just keep thinking about all of the soldiers that will not make it home for Christmas this year. 
I've been thinking about all of the soldiers that are in other countries, far from home that are missing their families.
I've been thinking about all of the soldiers that are on a base in the USA that will not make it home for Christmas.

I have 2 brothers that serve in the military.  One is in Fort Hood, Texas and one is in Afghanistan.  Both Cary and Brian have spent time in Afghanistan, missing out on time with family.  However, I know my family is not the only family that is separated from our loved ones this holiday. 

This holiday season, I encourage you to pray for the soldiers that are away from families this year.  I encourage you to pray for anyone that is serving in any capacity, that is separated from their families this holiday season.

This has always been a song that just kind of "tears at my heart."  As you watch this youtube video, think of soldiers that you know, or families you know that are missing loved ones and pray for them.
